Abstract

The adsorption of Sudan-III dye on various low-cost, natural west adsorbents have been studied. We have examine adsorption of Sudan-III dye with varying concentration on natural west, biomass adsorbents like rice husk, soya husk, chana (green vatana) husk and groundnut husk for fixed time adopting well known soaking method. The data obtained was studied using Freundich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms. The study was extended and prepared solutions were screened for PH metric and UV study. The considerable effort has been taken to minimize the toxic content using the natural waste.
