Preparation of Palm Oil Industry’s Biomass-Based Graphene Composite for the Adsorptive Removal of Methylene Blue

The ability of POME-based graphene shell composite (P-GSC), an adsorbent generated from oil palm wastes abundantly available in Malaysia such as POME and PKS, was examined in removing methylene blue (MB) dye by adsorption. Adsorption experiments, involving a batch column study and a batch equilibriu...
