Adsorption of Basic Dyes onto Natural Clay

Adsorption of Basic Dyes onto Natural Clay

The adsorption ability of natural clay towards the removal of basic dyes from aqueous textile solutions was investigated. The equilibrium isotherms were measured and analyzed using the Langmuir model and the experimental results compared with the theoretical data. The adsorbent exhibited considerabl...
