Adsorption of methylene blue from aquoues solution by using imprata cylindrica waste

Dyes are widely used in many industries, mainly in the textile industries. The effluents containing these dyes are an environmental concern and the disposal of these wastes into receiving water causes damage to the environment and may also be toxic to aquatic life. It is therefore imperative to trea...
