The adsorbent prepared from Averrhoa bilimbi was used to remove Reactive Yellow-14 dye from wastewater by adsorption. Various parameters like Biomass dose, Equilibration time, pH were studied. The adsorption isotherms have been analyzed and fitted with the Freundlich model. Kinetic studies fit pseudo first order equation. It was concluded that the dye, Reactive Yellow-14 interacts well with an eco-friendly biomass-based adsorbent, the dried leaf powder of Averrhoa bilimbi.
