Abstract: Removal of methyl red from aqueous solution onto coconut husks and coconut shell, a low cost agricultural waste material in a batch process was investigated. Adsorption and removal was studied as a function of amount of adsorbent (0.02-0.08 g), pH (2.0-12.0) and initial concentration (200-...
