Batch adsorption of indigo carmine on activated carbon prepared from sawdust: A comparative study and optimization of operating conditions using Response Surface Methodology

Raw sawdust was used to prepare two chemically activated carbon — one after treating with Ortho-phosphoric acid and another using sodium hydroxide. The adsorbents thus prepared were used to study indigo carmine removal under batch mode. The adsorbents were thus characterized and compared using the r...
