The removal of crude oil from water by lauric acid (LA) modified oil palm leaves (OPLsLA) was investigated by batch adsorption after varying pH (2–11), contact time (10–60 min), adsorbent dosage (0–52 g L−1), initial oil concentration (0–6400 mg L−1) and temperature (303–323 K). The modification sig...
