This study explores an intensive investigation of the effect of cationic surfactant, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) on biosorption of Acid Blue 25 (AB25), an anionic dye, onto Bengal gram fruit shell (BGFS) from aqueous solution. The BGFS was characterized using Fourier transform infrared spe...
