      Nabilah Aminah, Lutpi; W. Fadhilah, W. M. Khalik; Che Ku Kairulazam, Che Ku Abdullah; Wong, Yee Shian; Ong, Soon An, Dr.; Tengku Nuraiti, Tengku Izhar (Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
      The objective of this study is to investigate the adsorption efficiency of Garcinia Mangostana Linn. (GML) shells based activated carbon using two synthetic dyes which are methylene blue and acid orange 7. The parameters ...

    • Chemically modified sugarcane bagasse as a potentially low-cost biosorbent for dye removal 

      Saiful Azhar, Saad; Khairuddin, Md. Isa; Rohazita, Bahari (Elsevier B. V., 2010-12-15)
      The use of adsorbent prepared from sugarcane bagasse, an agro waste from sugar industries has been studied as an alternative substitute for activated carbon for the removal of dyes from wastewater. Adsorbents prepared ...

    • Kinetics of adsorption of Cu(II) and Cd(II) from aqueous solution on rice husk and modified rice husk 

      Soon-an, Ong; Chye-Eng, Seng; Poh-Eng, Lim (University of Vigo, 2007-02)
      The present study is aimed to investigate the adsorption behavior of Cu(II) and Cd(II) ions onto rice husk and modified rice husk. The adsorption of the heavy metal ions over both the adsorbents was found to follow Langmuir ...

    • Mechanism of turbidity and hardness removal in hard water sources by using Moringa oleifera 

      Fahmi, Muhammad Ridwan, Dr.; Nor Wahidatul Azura, Zainon Najib; Pang, Chan Ping; Nasrul, Hamidin, Dr. (Asian Network for Scientific, 2011)
      The objective of this study was to describe the mechanism of simultaneous removal of hardness and background turbidity in hard water for drinking water purpose by using Moringa oleifera (MO) that extracted with 1.0 M sodium ...

    • Removal of chromium (VI) from aqueous solution using treated oil palm fibre 

      Mohamed Hasnain, Isa; Naimah, Ibrahim; Hamidi, Abdul Aziz; Mohd. Nordin, Adlan; Nor Habsah, Md. Sabiani; Ali Akbar Lorestani, Zinatizadeh; Shamsul Rahman, Mohamed Kutty (Elsevier B.V, 2007-07-17)
      This study proposed an oil palm by-product as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of hexavalent chromium [Cr (VI)] from aqueous solution. Adsorption of Cr (VI) by sulphuric acid and heat-treated oil palm fibre was conducted ...

    • Sorption of methylene blue and acid orange 7 onto ananas comosus peels and leaves based activated carbon 

      Nabilah Aminah, Lutpi; Nurul Najiha, Jamil; Che Ku Kairulazam, Che Ku Abdullah; Wong, Yee Shian; Ong, Soon An, Dr.; Tengku Nuraiti, Tengku Izhar (Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
      The adsorption of Methylene Blue (MB) and Acid Orange 7 (AO7) dye onto Ananas Comosus Mixed Peels and Leaves (ACMPL) were carried out by conducting four different parameters such as initial concentration, pH, dosage of ...
