Kinetic, Thermodynamic and Equilibrium Studies on Uptake of Rhodamine B onto ZnCl2 Activated Low Cost Carbon

A carbonaceous adsorbent prepared from biomass waste like wood apple outer shell (Limonia acidissima) by ZnCl2 treatment was investigated for its efficiency in removing Rhodamine B (RDB). Influence of agitation time, adsorbent dose, dye concentration, pH and temperature were explored. Two theoretica...
