Recently, there is a growing interest in identifying low-cost alternative adsorbents which have reasonable adsorption efficiency for dye removal. In this study, agricultural waste, Artocarpus Integer peel (AI-Peel) was used as the adsorbent to remove methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution. The ba...
