Abstract:
Textile industry is one of the fast growing industrial sectors which are consuming and polluting large volumes of water. Four isotherms Langmuir isotherm, Freundlich adsorption isotherm, Tempkin isotherm and Dubinin–Radushkevich isotherm were studied to evaluate the adsorbent efficiency in removal of methylene blue dye from textile industry waste water. Among all the isotherms named Freundlich adsorption isotherm was found to be the best fit model with regression value of R2≥99. Isotherm studies proved that Vigna Trilobata pod can be used as a natural low cost adsorbent for removal of methylene blue dye.
