Abstract
In this study, fly ash from coal burning power plant was activated chemically, used as a low cost adsorbent for the removal of tartrazine dye. The activated fly ash was characterized by XRD. Results showed that activated fly ash due to increased amorphous property possesses more activity over surface to act as a suitable adsorbent for the removal of dye waste from industrial effluents. The adsorption kinetics is well represented by first order kinetic model.
