The present study was aimed at evaluating the performance of human hair as adsorbents for methylene blue (MB) dye removal. Human hair was treated using 0.1 m potassium hydroxide (KOH) and 0.1 m nitric acid, and the adsorbents were characterized for specific surface area and surface chemistry. The ba...
