Abstract:The aim of this study was to explore the use of adsorption in the removal of synthetic dyes in water bodies. These dyes pose a serious threat to both aquatic and human lives because of their toxicity and persistence in the environment. There is therefore an urgent need to remove them from water before discharge to the environment. Many of the current dye treatment methods are generally inefficient and expensive; however, adsorption is the most preferred method due to its inherent benefits such as simplicity, e… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
