Removal of Reactive Blue Dye from Aqueous Solution Using Neem Leaves Powder as an Adsorbent

Neem leaves is an agricultural product, perform as an effective adsorbent for colour removal from aqueous solution. A bench scale study was conducted for the removal of Reactive Blue dye. Experimental study was carried out to assess the potential effect of different flow rate and adsorbent depth. The maximum removal efficiency of 81.55% was observed for Reactive Blue colour at 10 cm adsorbent depth and 9ml/min flow rate. The adsorption isotherm of colour on the test of Neem leaves was carried out.
