Potentiality of banana peel for removal of Congo red dye from aqueous solution: isotherm, kinetics and thermodynamics studies

Abstract Potentiality of fruit peel (banana peel) was evaluated by adsorption of Congo red (CR) dye from aqueous solution. The adsorption study was performed by varying operating variables such as pH, initial concentration of CR, adsorbent dose, contact time and temperature. The dust of banana peel...
