Study on Modified Sawdust and How it Affects Decoloration
A new sorbent was developed by using Peach ( Prunus persica ) wood sawdust modified with epichlorohydrin, and its adsorption capacities for fuchsine basic and malachite green were evaluated. The optimum technologies for making the modified sawdust, as well as the optimal conditions for the modified sawdust to absorb fuchsine and malachite green from basic solutions, were determined by the orthogonal collocation method. Results showed that the modified sawdust could be used as an effective sorbent and this provided a new way of utilizing sawdust.
