Methyl orange adsorption from aqueous solution by corn cob based activated carbon

Water is essential to the ecosystem for the energy required to stay alive. Nowadays, rapid development in technology can cause pollution to the environment such as water quality pollution and then faced by society. A dangerous source in wastewater such as dyes poses a severe problem due to its toxic...
