Study on the Performance of Wheat Straw Biochar in Adsorbing Methyl Orange in Water

Methyl orange (MO), an anionic azo dye commonly found in textile wastewater, is resistant to conventional treatment due to its refractory nature. Adsorption offers a cost-effective alternative, and wheat straw, an abundant agricultural residue, was used to prepare activated biochar. When tested with 40 mg/L MO at pH 7...
