Reusability of macroalgae (Euchema Spinosum) as biosorbent for dye removal
In this research, biosorption and desorption of Methylene Blue (MB) dye from red macroalga, Euchema Spinosum (E. Spinosum) were observed. Biosorption-desorption experiment were conducted to determine the most effective eluent for dye desorption and investigate the reusability of macroalgae as biosor...
