    Study of biosorbent from agricultural waste (rise husk) for phospate removal in wastewater
    (Universiti Malaysia Terengganu, 2016) Nur Saadiah Zaini
    Phosphate is one of the essential elements in the earth but the excessive amount of phosphate can contribute to the environmental problems. Adsorption is one of the most effective and ecomical technique to removes phosphate in wastewater. Nowadays, researches have been discovered the potential and beneficial of the agricultural waste as a low cost adsorbent. This study aimed to prepare and characterize the efficiency of rice husk as biosorbent for phosphate removal in wastewater. Six type of adsorbent were prepared, which are Rice Husk Ash and Activated Rice Husk at five different temperature. The prepared adsorbents were characterized in term of functional group by using FTIR Spectroscpe and in term of morphology structure by using SEM method
