Process optimization of methylene blue adsorption onto eggshell-treated palm oil fuel ash

Palm oil fuel ash (POFA) and eggshell (EG) were explored towards efficient methylene blue (MB) removal. Calcined EG, with a high content of CaO was used as a low-cost activation replacement for the alkali treatment of POFA. The adsorption performance of EG–POFA was studied by comparing its performan...
