Removal of Amine Solutions from Artificial Wastewater Using Adsorbents Developed from Rice Husk

The product after separating rice grains from the bran; rice husk, has high potential to be developed as adsorbent to remove amine wastewater from gas processing plant. Amine contributes to high chemical oxygen demand (COD) content. Raw rice husk needs to be treated in order to enhance the absorb...
