Popis: | The effectiveness of processed solid residue from olive-mill waste (JEFT) and solid residue of pyrolyzed oil shale in removing methylene blue as a cationic dye and methyl orange as an anionic dye from aqueous solutions has been investigated and compared with that of a commercial activated carbon, namely coconut-shell carbon. All three sorbents showed significant methylene-blue removal, but only the coconut granular-activated carbon showed notable methyl-orange removal. The oil-shale sorbent showed no removal and the olive carbon showed poor removal of methyl orange. The removal of both methylene blue and methyl orange increases with the lapse of time, and attains equilibrium in 100 min. |
