Adsorption is a commonly used method for wastewater decontamination. Low-cost biosorbents are receiving increasing attention as promising alternatives to traditional activated carbon, due to their numerous advantages, including afforda-bility, biodegradability, abundance, and the absence of secondary pollution. This study investigates the potential of base-treated Saccharum Munja as an effective biosorbent for removing crystal violet dye. Batch adsorption experiments examined the effects of various operational parameters such as pH, contact time, initial dye concentration, and temperature. The study also includes the analysis of adsorption kinetics and isotherms. Furthermore, the spent biosorbent was recovered using a mixture of acetone and hot water, ensuring the process remains environmentally benign.
