The removal of rhodamine B dye from aqueous solution using Casuarina equisetifolia needles as adsorbent
Casuarina equisetifolia needle (CEN), a lignocellulosic-rich and sustainable material, was used in order to investigate its ability as an adsorbent to remove rhodamine B (RB) dye from aqueous solution. Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometer was used to characterise CEN functional groups and scannin...
