Different natural fibers and yarns (hemp, flax, and cotton), obtained as a waste from textile industry,
were used for the removal of methylene blue from aqueous solution. In attempt to increase the
adsorption efficiency, examined fibers and yarn were modified by sodium hydroxide solution.
Characterization of examined samples was performed by scanning electron microscopy and Fourier
transform infrared spectroscopy. It was shown that applied modification caused the differences in the
distribution of hemicelluloses in the structure of examined fibers and fibers in yarn, inducing the
changes in morphology and surface chemistry. These changes slightly improved the adsorption
properties of hemp fibers, while in the case of cotton yarn modification had a negative effect on
methylene blue adsorption. Nevertheless, adsorption efficiency of these waste fibers and yarns highly
increase with the pH of the solution, enabling their utilization for methylene blue removal from
wastewaters.
