Applications Of Biowaste And Their Activated Carbon As An Adsorbent Of Congo Red Dye

In this study seeds of bitter gourd (Momordicacharantia) and peels of Chickoo (Manilkarazapota), Ridge gourd (Luffaacutangula), yellow cucumber (cucumissativus) and also the activated carbon derived from these seeds and peels is used as effective bioosrbents of congo red dye from its aqueous solution. The Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms have been verified by the experimental data. Different concentration of adsorbate is used for the study. The effect of pH, amount of adsorbent dosage and effective time of adsorption is also studied
