Abstract:Lignocellulose compounds contained in water hyacinth leaves (WHL) (Eichhornia crassipes) can be used as raw material for the manufacture of activated carbon at a low and renewable rate. The ACWHL can be used as adsorbent for reducing a COD value and turbidity levels on laundry waste. The purpose of this study is to determine the best adsorption modelling of ACWHL on COD values and turbidity levels in laundry waste in kinetics and isotherm studies and determine the effectiveness of reducing a COD value and turb… Show more
