Abstract
The total dissolved solids and sulphate in the electroplating industry effluent was adsorbed using Albizia lebbeck pod powder, which was studied by batch method. The effect of initial concentration of Albizia lebbeck pod powder for removing total dissolved solids and sulphate in the electroplating industry effluent has been evaluated. The results of the present study indicated that the maximum adsorption capacity of Albizia lebbeck pod powder for removing total dissolved solids and sulphate in the electroplating industry effluent was observed at an optimum dosage of 1000 mg/l of Albizia lebbeck pod powder. The kinetic data were fitted to the pseudo first-order, pseudo second-order, Elovich and intraparticle diffusion models. Based on regression coefficient, the equilibrium data found fitted well with pseudo second-order kinetic model than that of other models.
