Parametric and adsorption kinetic studies of reactive black 5 removal from textile simulated sample using oil palm (Elais Guineensis) empty fruit bunch

The potential of empty fruit bunch as a low-cost biosorbent for the removal of Reactive Black 5 from aqueous solution was investigated in this study. The influences of pH, contact time, initial concentration and biosorbent dosage were studied in batch experiments at room temperature. The empty frui...
