The purpose of this study is to remove the dye from the paper mill industry waste water and to use neem leaf powder as an adsorbent. Bath adsorption parameters such as the effect of adsorbent dosage, contact time, agitation speed, pH, are studied. The maximum removal percentage by varying the pH of MV is 80.39%, The maximum amount of adsorption using neem leaf powder was found to be 0.12 g for MV. Maximum removal percentage of MV is 74.2%. Freundlich and Langmuir Isotherms were plotted and that concludes neem leaf powder is a good adsorbent for the removal of dye from the waste water.
