Methylene Blue Adsorption onto Water Hyacinth: Batch and Column Study

The adsorption of methylene blue cationic dye by water hyacinth root was studied in a batch system. The experimental data isotherms were analyzed using the Langmuir and Freundlich equations. The monolayer adsorption capacity for methylene blue dye was found as 0.187 kg kg−1. Three kinetic models (th...
