Simultaneous ultrasonic-assisted removal of malachite green and methylene blue from aqueous solution by Zr-SBA-15

TL;DR: In this paper, simultaneous and competitive removal of methylene blue (MB) and malachite green (MG) dyes was performed by employing nanostructure Zr-SBA-15, once using solid phase extraction method (SPE) and again using ultrasonic bath, followed by second-order derivative spectrophotometric method in order to resolve the corresponding overlapped spectra.
