Calligonum polygonoides biomass as a low-cost adsorbent: surface characterization and methylene blue adsorption characteristics
In this present research work, Calligonum polygonoides (CP) was used as an effective biosorbent for the methylene blue (MB) removal from aqueous solution. The biosorbent was used without any chemical treatment. The biosorbent was characterized by various techniques, such as Fourier transform infrare...
