Abstract Sugarcane bagasse (stalk) and straw (leaves), an agricultural waste, which had been subjected to either an organosolv or organosolvoxidative pretreatment were used for the removal of methylene blue dye or heavy metals (Fe(III) and Cu(II)) from model aqueous solutions. The sorption of methylene blue was investigated as a function of pH, dye concentration, and contact time. The sorption of metal ions was studied as a function of concentration.

were used to analyze the sorption process. It was shown that adsorption isotherms fitted better into Freundlich isotherm model, which assumes a multilayer adsorption on a heterogeneous surface. The morphological, textural, and structural characteristics such as bulk and true densities, particle size distributions, porosity, and thermal decomposition features of the biosorbents were determined to understand better the mechanism of sorption of various pollutants. The results showed significant differences in the chemical compositions and physical properties of the initial and modified biomass samples, especially for the cellulosic biosorbents prepared with organosolv-oxidative pretreatment.
