Surfactant modification of banana trunk as low-cost adsorbents and their high benzene adsorptive removal performance from aqueous solution Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • The banana trunk was modified using different surfactants (cationic, anionic and non-ionic surfactants), such as ​CTAB, SDS, Pluronic 123, and Triton X-100 to develop a novel low-cost adsorbent for benzene removal from aqueous solution.
