Textile Industries, Dye stuff units and pulp units are considered to be basic contributors to colour in receiving water bodies. These industries have always had a processing technique for colour removal in effluent streams. The removal of dyes present in industrial effluent has received great attention in the last few years. It is due to the increase of awareness and rigidity of the environmental rules. Adsorption is one of the techniques that has been used with success for the effective removal of dyes. However, the efficiency of the adsorption process depends on the choice of a proper adsorbent. Because of the high cost of some conventional adsorbents, researches have been directed to the use of alternative adsorbent. The present study involves as investigation of low-cost adsorbents like orange peel, neem leaves and banana peel with their color removal characteristics and compared their performance. The proposed dyestuff for the ongoing study is Methylene Blue. The influence of various factors such as Effect of time, Effect of Adsorbent dosage and Effect of pH has been studied. Based the results from the batch studies a simple adsorption column for lab scale has been studied. From the observations and discussions it was found that the colour removing capacity of Orange peel is found to be very effective. Adsorbents like Neem leaves and Banana peel was also found to be effective.
