ABSTRACT / САЖЕТАК:

The main causes of water pollution in the environment are industries which wastewaters contain many pollutants, including synthetic organic dyes. These compounds can be toxic to organisms, and it is important to eliminate them from wastewaters. Biosorption is a sorption method in which the sorbent is of biological origin, the so-called biosorbent. This method is cheap, simple and eco- friendly. In this investigation the biomass of Ambrosia artemisiifolia was used as a biosorbent of synthetic dyes: Malachite Green (MG), Congo Red (CR), and Rhodamine B (RB). The effectiveness of the analyzed biosorbent was monitored by UV-Vis spectroscopy. The biosorbents were characterized before and after sorption with Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). After 24 h of biosorption, removal efficiency was more than 80 % for all synthetic organic dyes.
