Adsorptive Removal of Methylene Blue in Aqueous Solution with Alkali Activated Fly Ash

Article Preview

Abstract:

Dyeing and finishing processes applied in the textile industry are the most common source of water pollution. The wastewater containing dyes is difficult to treat. The fly ash modified by alkali was investigated in this study to evaluate the removal efficiency of methylene blue in aqueous solution. The experimental results shown that the efficiency of adsorption could be prominent improved by alkali activated fly ash. Alkali activated fly ash could be an economical adsorbents used for printing and dyeing wastewater treatment processes.
