Kinetic study of adsorption process using chitosan, activated carbon, and rice husk for monoethanolamine (mea) wastewater treatment via batch process

In petrochemical industry, monoethanolamine (MEA) is a common solvent used as absorption medium to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the gaseous stream. In the absorber, the reaction between CO2 and MEA will generate some salt and increased the amount of the suspended solids in an absorber due to dir...
