            Abstract

            The study is carried out to investigate the removal efficiency of the textile dye Congo Red (CR) on fish scales (FS) of Labeo rohita. Huge fish scales are dumped as waste from the fish markets and are not converted into valuable products. That is why a fish scale of widespread fish in Bangladesh Labeo rohita has been selected as an adsorbent in removing Congo red from an aqueous solution. In the present study, the effect of different parameters such as adsorption dosage, contact time, concentration of dye, and pH on the removal of CR were investigated. The maximum dye removal efficiency (88.53 %) was observed for 3g/100 mL of adsorbent at an initial concentration of 1×10-4 M and pH 8.80 after 60 minutes. Modification of the surface of the fish scales was carried out by using HCl and KOH. The surface of the adsorbents was characterized by FTIR spectroscopy. After 60 minutes of contact time, the percentage of adsorption for the acid and base-modified FS was 54.81% and 90.51% respectively. The higher intense FTIR spectra of the base-modified FS denoted the better efficiency of the adsorbent at the basic medium. The adsorption kinetics of CR on FS is studied by following the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Experimental results showed that fish scales of Labeo rohita have satisfying color removal efficiency and might be a better alternative to other adsorbents to detoxify industrial wastewater. A mechanism of adsorption of CR on FS has been proposed.
