Article Synopsis
- Methylene blue (MB), a carcinogenic dye prevalent in printing and textile industries, poses environmental challenges due to its high concentration in industrial discharge, necessitating effective removal methods.
- This research introduces a novel magnetized biochar (γ-FeO-LSB) synthesized from Lagenaria siceraria peels, demonstrating superior magnetic properties and greater surface area compared to conventional biochar, making it potentially more effective in dye removal.
- The adsorption studies indicate that γ-FeO-LSB can efficiently remove MB dye under varying conditions, showing a maximum adsorption capacity of 54.55 mg/g, and it remains effective for up to four cycles, all while being cost-effective to produce.
