A MECHANISTIC APPROACH TO METHYLENE BLUE SORPTION ON TWO VEGETABLE WASTES: CORK BARK AND GRAPE STALKS
Two vegetable wastes, cork bark and grape stalks, were investigated for the removal of methylene blue from aqueous solution. The effects of contact time, dye concentration, pH, and temperature on sorption were studied relative to adsorption on a commercially-activated carbon. The highest adsorption...
