Adsorption of Methylene Blue Dye on Pure and Carbonized Water Weeds

TL;DR: The influence of process variables in batch adsorption has been used to assess the removal of methylene blue dye from aqueous solution using pure and carbonized biomasses of water hyacinth and water spinach as mentioned in this paper.

Methylene blue biosorption by pericarp of corn, alfalfa, and agave bagasse wastes

TL;DR: Agro-industrial wastes used as alternative low-cost adsorbents for the removal of methylene blue from aqueous solutions exhibit considerable MB adsorption capacity, but it is lower than that reported for activated carbon; however, the biosorbents show higher adsorptive rate than powdered activated carbon.

Basic and Reactive Dyes Sorption Enhancement of Rice Hull through Chemical Modification

TL;DR: In this article, an inexpensive and efficient sorbent was prepared by chemically modifying rice hull for the removal of both basic and reactive dyes. But the results showed that an appreciable amount of both dyes could be sorbed.

Kinetics of Adsorption on Carbon from Solution

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the rate of adsorption of persistent organic compounds on granular carbon is quite low and the rate is partially a function of the pore size distribution of the adsorbent, of the molecular size and configuration of the solute, and of the relative electrokinetic properties of adsorbate and adsorbents.

Sorption of dye from aqueous solution by peat

TL;DR: In this paper, the sorption of two dyes, namely Basic Blue 69 and Acid Blue 25 onto peat has been studied in terms of pseudo-second order and first order mechanisms for chemical sorption as well as an intraparticle diffusion mechanism process.

Use of cellulose-based wastes for adsorption of dyes from aqueous solutions.

TL;DR: Based on the adsorption capacity, it was shown that banana peel was more effective than orange peel and intraparticle diffusion of dyes within the particle was identified to be rate limiting.
