Adsorption thermodynamics, kinetics and isosteric heat of adsorption of malachite green onto chemically modified rice husk
TL;DR: In this article, rice husk treated with NaOH was used as a low cost adsorbent for the removal of malachite green from aqueous solution in batch adsorption procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal and recovery of Chrysoidine Y from aqueous solutions by waste materials.
TL;DR: The recovery of the adsorbed dye from bottom ash and de-oiled soya, have been found to be 85% and 99%, respectively, and column experiments indicate practical utility of the Adsorbents for eradicating hazardous dyes from effluents.
