Zusammenfassung: | The present study was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of white kidney beans as low cost
adsorbent of the Congo red dye. The results show that the best contact time was 90 mints with removal
efficiency (R%) 73%, the results also that there was a direct correlation between the increase in the
adsorbent weight and the increase in R%, with R% up to 76.7 , while the initial dye concentration does
not affect the adsorption process. From the results it been noticed that the adsorption of the congo red
dye was the highest in the acidic medium with R% 73.3 and the lowest R% was observed in the alkali
medium. The isotherm studies show that the freudlish isotherm fit well with experimental data rather
than the Langmuir isotherm. |
