Abstract
Urethane sodium carboxylate (USC) was synthesized and its dye removal ability was investigated. USC characteristics were studied using FTIR and SEM. Basic Blue 41 (BB41), Basic Red 18 (BR18), and Basic Violet 16 (BV16) were used. The effect of adsorbent dosage, dye concentration and salt on dye removal was evaluated. Adsorption kinetics followed pseudo-second order. The USC adsorption capacity was 474, 538 and 298 mg/g for BB41, BR18 and BV16, respectively. Adsorption isotherm followed with Langmuir isotherm. The results showed that the USC might be a suitable adsorbent to remove dyes from colored wastewater.
