METHYLENE BLUE DYE REMOVAL USING
NATURAL LOW COST ADSORBENT:
ADSORPTION ISOTHERM STUDIES
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 ad-
sorbent efficiency in removal of methylene blue dye from textile industry
waste water. Among all the isotherms named Freundlich adsorption iso-
thermwas 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.
