Adsorption of methylene blue on low-cost adsorbents: A review

TL;DR: It is evident from a literature survey of about 185 recently published papers that low-cost adsorbents have demonstrated outstanding removal capabilities for MB, and these include agricultural wastes, industrial solid wastes, biomass, clays minerals and zeolites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cationic and anionic dye adsorption by agricultural solid wastes: A comprehensive review

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of agricultural solid wastes to remove two classes of dye, cationic and anionic dyes, was discussed and a simple comparison among cationi-and anionic dye adsorption by the same adsorbent was made, thus possibly opening the door for a better understanding of the dye-classified adaption process.

Batch adsorption of methylene blue from aqueous solution by garlic peel, an agricultural waste biomass.

TL;DR: The results indicated that the garlic peel could be an alternative for more costly adsorbents used for dye removal, and was fitted well with the Freundlich isotherm.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorption behavior of methylene blue on carbon nanotubes.

TL;DR: Results suggested that the methylene blue adsorption on CNTs was a spontaneous and endothermic process.

Kinetics and thermodynamics of Methylene Blue adsorption on Neem (Azadirachta indica) leaf powder

TL;DR: In this article, Methylene blue was adsorbed on an adsorbent prepared from mature leaves of the Neem tree (Azadirachta indica), and a batch adsorption study was carried out with variable adsorbate concentration, adsorbant amount, pH, and temperature.
