This paper presents the removal of methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution using adsorbent produced from Banana peels waste (BPW). Banana peels waste adsorbent (BPWA) was prepared via carbonization in laboratory muffle furnace for 1 h. A preliminary study was performed on the adsorption reaction b...
