Adsorption of Acid Yellow 36 and direct blue 86 dyes to Delonix regia biochar-sulphur by Ahmed Eleryan, Uyiosa Osagie Aigbe, Kingsley Eghonghon Ukhurebor, Mohamed A. Hassaan, Safaa Ragab, Otolorin Adelaja Osibote, Ismail Hossain, Ahmed El Nemr

“…For the adsorption of AY36 and DB86 to DRB-S, equilibrium was attained at 30 and 90 min of reaction time interaction. The Langmuir model (LGM) and pseudo-second-order-model (PSOM) best describe the biosorption of both dye molecules to the biosorbent owing to the equal and homogeneous spread of the dye molecules over the biosorbent porous surface and a chemisorption process which involved the valency force through the exchange of electrons between the dye molecules and the prepared biosorbent. …”
