Abstract EN

This research aimed to examine the effect of concentration of dyes stuff, contact time, temperature and ratio of adsorbent weight in (gm) to volume of solution in (ml) on the percentage removal.

Two dyes were used ; direct blue 6 and direct yellow and the adsorbent was the maize cob.

Batch experiments were performed by contacting different weights of adsorbent with 50 ml of solution of desired concentration with continuous stirring at various temperatures.

The percentage of removal was calculated and the maximum percentage of removal was 80 %.

And as the concentration of solution, contact time, temperature and the ratio of adsorbent to volume of solution increase the percentage of removal increase.
