“…Emissions standards are becoming increasingly stringent for azo dyes pollution and they are must be removed to minimize the environmental impact. Various processes and techniques have been developed for azo dyes removal from aqueous solution including adsorption (Goscianska et al, 2014(Goscianska et al, , 2015aYagub et al, 2014), chemical coagulation (Zahrim et al, 2011), photodegradation (Davies et al, 2005) and biodegradation (Singh et al, 2015). Among them, adsorption onto porous materials is considered to be one of the most efficient techniques for azo dyes removal from aqueous solution (Goscianska et al, 2014(Goscianska et al, , 2015aYagub et al, 2014).…”
