| Summary: | In this study, the adsorbent material used to adsorb methylene blue from
aqueous solutions is phosphoric acid treated date seeds. Agricultural wastes are
selected as adsorbent due to their low cost compared to high cost adsorbent such
as activated carbon. Parameters examined in this study are agitation rate, pH,
adsorbent dosage, temperature, contact time and initial concentrations. For
kinetic study, pseudo-first --order and pseudo-second-order are used to analyze
the adsorption rate of methylene blue on date seeds. |
