Adsorption Model for the Removal of Acid Dyes from Effluent by Bagasse Pith Using a Simplified Isotherm

The adsorption of two acid dyes, viz. Acid Red AR114 and Acid Blue AB25, on to bagasse pith, a waste material from the sugar cane industry, has been studied. Equilibrium isotherms and agitated batch contact time studies have been carried out. A mass-transfer model has been used based on a Langmuir-t...
