Abstract: The application of activated leaf ash of T. divericata for the removal of methyl orange from aqueous solution was investigated in this study. Five dilutions of 10 ?g/ml of synthetic dye methyl orange were prepared as adsorbate and 10 mg, 20 mg, 30 mg, 40 mg and 50 mg activated leaf ash of T. divericata as adsorbent used for bio adsorption study. The maximum bio-adsorption was found when 97 mg/100 ml methyl orange dye was absorbed by 50 mg amount of leaf ash adsorbent. This study concluded that T. divericata leaves, which are abundantly available, can be utilized as efficient bio adsorbent for the removal of methyl orange from waste water release from industries.
