Preparation and characterization of modified sepiolite for the removal of Acid green 20 from aqueous solutions: isotherm, kinetic and process optimization

Abstract In this study, adsorption of Acid green 20 (AG20) by modified sepiolite, hexadecyltrimethylammonium-modified sepiolite (HDTMA-Sep), was optimized using response surface methodology based on a central composite design. Characteristics of natural sepiolite and modified sepiolite can be analyz...
