Cassava peel as adsorbent for Rhodamine B dye removal of Rhodamine B Dye
Agricultural waste which is also known as residues left from agriculture sector such as fruit peels, coconut husk and maize cob are used in treating wastewater, most commonly in textile industries to remove dyes. The best method that can be used in order to treat the wastewater and to remove the dye...
