Preparation and characterisation of treated agricultural wastes as biosorbents

This study characterizes the agricultural wastes i.e., coconut husk, banana trunk, sago hampas, rice husk and oil palm empty fruit bunch treated with sulfuric acid (H2S04) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH). The pretreatment was done to improve the adsorption capacity and enhance the porosity structures. T...
