| Abstract: | Buffing dust generated from leather industry can be considered as a source for obtaining activated carbon for the removal of dyes from wastewater. The adsorption capacity of buffing dust based activated carbon was 6.24 mg/g at a pH 3.5, temperature 30°C for dye concentration of 125 mg/L and carbonization temperature 900°C. Effects of initial dye concentration, pH temperature and particle size on dye adsorption and pore diffusion were also determined. The enthalpy of adsorption was determined to be - 15.69 kJ/mol. |
