Abstract: The effect of temperature on the equilibrium adsorption of Methylene Blue dye from
aqueous solution using bentonite was investigated. The equilibrium adsorption data were
analyzed using three widely applied isotherms: Langmuir, Freundlich, and Redlich-Peterson. A
non-linear method was used for comparing the best fit of the isotherms. Best fit was found to be
Redlich-Peterson isotherm. Thermodynamic parameters, such as Delta G degrees, Delta H
degrees, and Delta S degrees, were calculated using adsorption equilibrium constant obtained
from the Langmuir isotherm. Results suggested that the Methylene Blue adsorption on bentonite
was a spontaneous and endothermic process. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
