Removal of metanil yellow dye from aqueous solution using cassava peel

Unused materials from agricultural are known as agricultural waste. This cheap and renewable agricultural waste has the ability to remove heavy metals and dyes from wastewater. Nowadays, agricultural wastes are mostly used in adsorption process to treat the polluted water from various industries lik...
