Remediation of industry waste water effluent by using kenaf as waves absorbent

Batik industry is one of the industries that produce high amount of waxes in their wastewater. Natural fiber has become apparently important as a source of absorbent. Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus) core is one of the good absorbent to absorb the waxes due to its characteristic. The contact time, weight...
