    • A novel pretreatment method of lignocellulosic material as adsorbent and kinetic study of dye waste adsorption 

      Ling, Wei Low; Tjoon, Tow Teng; Anees, Ahmad; Norhashimah, Morad; Yee, Shian Wong (Springer Science+Business Media B.V., 2010)
      Sulphuric acid-modified bagasse has been used as low-cost adsorbent for the removal of methylene blue (MB) dye from aqueous solution. In order to remove organic compounds that contribute to chemical oxygen demand (COD), ...
    • Removal of chromium (VI) from aqueous solution using treated oil palm fibre 

      Mohamed Hasnain, Isa; Naimah, Ibrahim; Hamidi, Abdul Aziz; Mohd. Nordin, Adlan; Nor Habsah, Md. Sabiani; Ali Akbar Lorestani, Zinatizadeh; Shamsul Rahman, Mohamed Kutty (Elsevier B.V, 2007-07-17)
      This study proposed an oil palm by-product as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of hexavalent chromium [Cr (VI)] from aqueous solution. Adsorption of Cr (VI) by sulphuric acid and heat-treated oil palm fibre was conducted ...
    • Removal of copper from aqueous solution by citric acid modified rice straw 

      Che Zulzikrami, Azner Abidin; Fahmi, Muhamad Ridwan; Naimah, Ibrahim; Masitah, Hassan; Salsuwanda, Selamat; Nazerry Rosmady, Rahmat (Universiti Malaysia Pahang, 2009-06-20)
      The objective of the present study were to convert rice straw, a by-product of rice production to a metal adsorbent and further to investigate the potential of using the adsorbent for the removal of Cu(II) ions. The ...
