The ability of five low cost adsorbents - rice husk, cotton, bark, hair and coal - to adsorb two basic dyes, namely, Safranine and Methylene Blue, has been studied. Equilibrium isotherms have been determined and analysed using the Langmuir equations. The monolayer saturation capacities for Safranine are 1119, 838, 875, 190 and 120 mg g(-1) adsorbent and for Methylene Blue are 914, 312, 277, 158 and 250 mg g(-1) adsorbent for bark, rice husk, cotton waste, hair and coal respectively. A limited number of fixed bed column studies have been performed and the bed depth service time for each dye-adsorbent system has been determined.
