Tea Dust as a Potential Low-Cost Adsorbent for the Removal of Crystal Violet from Aqueous Solution

The present work demonstrates tea dust (TD) as a potential low-cost adsorbent for the removal of crystal violet (CV) from aqueous solution by batch adsorption technique. Reaction kinetics and isotherm studies were carried out under various conditions of initial dye concentration, contact time, adsor...
