Removal of Congo Red from aqueous solution by adsorption on pandan leaves (Pandanus Amaryllifolius) Biochar using response surface methodology

Congo Red (CR) dye has been widely used in manufacturing industries. Improper treatment before discharge of effluents was the main factor of CR being discharged into water streams. CR may cause various of negative impacts to the environment, animal and human health when it is exposed abundantly into...
