Modified walnut shell (EAWNS) was prepared by reaction with epichlorohydrin and alkaline solution of aspartic acid and used to remove reactive dye (Reactive Brilliant Blue (KN-R)) from aqueous media. The isotherms, kinetics and thermodynamics of KN-R adsorption onto EAWNS were studied at 298-318 K. The isotherm data of KN-R adsorption onto EAWNS agreed closely with the Langmuir model. The theoretical monolayer adsorption capacity for KN-R was 224.42 mg/g at 318 K. The result from the Dubinin-Radushkevich model showed that the KN-R adsorption onto EAWNS is chemisorption. The adsorption rate of KN-R onto EAWNS conformed to the pseudo-second-order model. The diffusion mechanism was investigated by the intraparticle diffusion model. The mass-transfer coefficient calculated by the surface mass-transfer coefficient model was in range of 2.95 × 10 -5 to 2.93 × 10 -4 cm/s. The thermodynamic results suggested that the adsorption of KN-R onto EAWNS is spontaneous and endothermic in nature. The design of a single-stage batch adsorption process based on EAWNS adsorbent was carried out. Furthermore, the recycled EAWNS maintains high adsorption capacity despite four cycles.
