Removal of congo red dye from aqueous solution by bagasse / Norain Isa, Nor Aziyah Bakhari and Jaudat Hamidon

The present study deals with the utilisation of unmodified bagasse (UMB) as an adsorbent for the removal of congo red (CR) from aqueous solutions. The effect of adsorbent dosage, contact time and initial CR concentration on the adsorption are investigated. Then, the optimum conditions are applied to...
