Adsorption of Supranol Yellow 4GL from Aqueous Solution onto Activated Carbons Prepared from Seawater Algae

Adsorbents prepared from seawater algae, viz. green Ulva lactuca (PGA) and brown Systoceira stricta (PBA), by chemical activation were successfully tested for the removal of Supranol Yellow 4GL dye from aqueous solutions. Impregnation in 20% phosphoric acid for 2 h at 170 °C and subsequent air activ...
