Surfactant-modified Macadamia nutshell for enhancement of methylene blue dye adsorption from aqueous media

This study reported the synthesis of a low-cost, and efficient adsorbent through surfactant modified macadamia nutshells (SMS) by a facile sodium dodecyl sulfonate (SDS) treatment approach. The SDS treatment resulted in increased functionalities, and ion exchangeable sites of macadamia nutshells lea...
