Adsorption isotherms of CR onto powdered eggshell were analyzed by Langmuir, Freundlich and Sips models. It was observed that the optimum CR adsorption onto powdered eggshell occurred at contact time of 20 minutes, the adsorbent dosage of 20 g, initial concentration of 20 mg/L and pH 2. In addition, the particle size of powdered eggshell has no significant effect on the adsorption of CR. Adsorption isotherms studied through the use of graphical methods revealed that the adsorption of CR onto powdered eggshell follows the Langmuir model, with the maximum adsorption capacity was 95.25 mg g-1. The powdered eggshell investigated in this study thus exhibited as a high potential adsorbent for the removal of CR from aqueous solution.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Adsorption,Congo red,Dye,Eggshell,Isotherm[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
