Activated Carbon-Limestone-Alginate (Ala) Beads For The Removal Of Colour And Turbidity From Kerian River Water
This study focused on the usage of activated carbon (AC), limestone (LS) and alginates in treating the Kerian river water. Therefore, the best mix ratio (AC: LS) 3:7 has been adapted based on the previous study to produced composite adsorbent for removal of colour and turbidity and followed by regen...
