Calcium hydroxide as low cost adsorbent for the effective removal of indigo carmine dye in water

Adsorption of indigo carmine dye onto calcium hydroxide was investigated in this work. The variation in the pH, adsorbent dose, dye concentration, duration and the temperature was evaluated. Adsorption of indigo carmine dye onto calcium hydroxide was effective at pH 12 (50 min) and follows Langmuir-...
