Characterization of pulverized Marula seed husk and its potential for the sequestration of methylene blue from aqueous solution
Abstract Dyes are ranked as an important class of pollutants which affect the aesthetic property of the environment when present even in very low concentrations. This study was carried out to explore the potential use of an agricultural waste (Marula seed husk) to decontaminate methylene blue (MB) f...
