The aim of this study was to scrutinize the removal of methylene blue from synthetic wastewater by the biosorption on biosorbents. The operation parameters investigated including initial dye concentrations, adsorbent dosage, temperature, contact time and pH (2-12). The experimental isotherms data were examined using Freundlich, Langmuir and isotherm models. The data was discovered that Langmuir isotherm model suits the data very well for methylene blue dye on biosorbents. The pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order kinetic model and intraparticle diffusion model were used to inspect the experimental data of different initial concentrations. It was found that the pseudo-second order kinetic model outlined the data of methylene blue dye biosorption on adsorbents very well.
