Methylene blue adsorption onto crosslinked sago starch
Crosslinked sago starch was prepared by crosslinking native sago starch with sodium trimetaphosphate (CSS-STMP) and epichlorohydrin (CSS-EPCH) as renewable adsorbents. CSS-STMP and CCS-EPCH were used to remove methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution based on its characterization tests. The adsorpt...
