Studies on the Removal of Rhodamine B and Malachite Green from Aqueous Solutions by Activated Carbon
Activated carbon prepared from tamarind fruit shells by direct carbonization was used for the removal of rhodamine B and malachite green dyes from aqueous solutions. Adsorption studies were performed by varying such parameters as dye concentration, pH of the dye solution, time and temperature. The e...
