Alkali treated Foumanat tea waste as an efficient adsorbent for methylene blue adsorption from aqueous solution
The adsorption of methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution by alkali treated Foumanat tea waste (ATFTW) from agriculture biomass was investigated. The adsorbent was characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and nitrogen physisorption. FTIR...
