The adsorption- desorption processes of methylene blue on both adsorbents were studied and the number of effective cycles was determined in each case. Desorbent efficiency of three substances was evaluated: NaCl 0.1 M, ethanol 50% (V/V) and tap water. As much as three adsorption-desorption cycles were obtained in all cases.pdfengopenAccesshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/Atribución-NoComercial-CompartirIgual 4.0 Internacionalmethylene bluefixed-bed reactorcotton huskquebracho chipinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleAcceso abiertohttps://dx.doi.org/10.18687/LACCEI2023.1.1.1594
