Abstract

Discoloration of Batik Effluent by Chemically Modified Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch Fibers

Highlights

  • Dyes are widely used in industries such as in textile, rubber, paper, plastics, cosmetics and other industries

  • Since the biodegradation of dyes is quite ineffective, wastewater from textile industry has gained a strict attention from the authority (Ganesh et al 1994; Weber & Adams 1995)

  • The purpose of this study is to identify the appropriate treatment and modification of empty fruit bunch (EFB) fibers by cationic and anionic surface functionalization
