Abstract: | We report the adsorption isotherm of acid dye on the surface of chitin, a unique solid adsorbent. Adsorption process offers
an attractive benefit for a dyeing house treatment. Influences of essential kinetic parameters such as adsorbent particle
size, reaction temperature governing the dye adsorption have been investigated. Adsorptions isotherms of dye on chitin were
developed and the equilibrium data fitted well to the Langmuir, Freundlich and Redlich Peterson isotherm model. At optimum
conditions maximum dye adsorption capacity of chitin estimated with the Langmuir 44.0, 85.0, 104.3 mg/g and 85.0, 114.10,
113.62 mg/g adsorbent. The results showed that chelating polymer of chitin could be considered as potential adsorbents for
acid dye removal from dilute solution. |
