[ 1 ] - Adsorption of the Cationic Dye Ethyl Violet on Acid and Alkali-Treated Wild Carob Powder, A Low-Cost Adsorbent Derived from Forest Waste
The effect of acid-alkaline treatment of lignocellulosic material (wild carob forest wastes) on Ethyl violet adsorption was investigated. It was found that surface chemistry plays an important role in Ethyl Violet (EV) adsorption. HCl treatment produces more active acidic surface groups such as carboxylic and lactone, resulting in an increase in the adsorption of EV dye. The adsorp...
