| Summary: | In this paper, snail shell powder was used an adsorbent for safranine dye due to its low cost, high efficiency and high adsorption capacity. Experiments were conducted at a temperature of 298 K to find out the effect of pH, concentration, weight, ionic strength and equilibrium time. Also, the best conditions for the adsorption of Safranin dye were implemented at a weight of 0.0200 g of snail shell powder. The removal ratio was 96.09 % at a concentration of 9mg/L and 20 minutes as adsorption time at a temperature of 298 K. The objective of the study to analyze the equilibrium isotherms. The data collected from the experiments were analyzed by the three models of adsorption: Langmuir, Temkin, and Freundlich. The data were suitable for Freundlich isotherm. The calculated thermodynamic information of the process shows that the removal process occurs through an active exchange of random molecules.
