Data of adsorption of Basic Blue 41 dye from aqueous solutions by activated carbon prepared from filamentous algae.

ABSTRACT: For this data article the adsorption of Basic Blue 41 (BB 41) dye by activated carbon derived from filamentous algae (AAC) of available in agriculture waste as cheap adsorbents were examined. Activated carbon has been widely used as an adsorbent regard to its massive specific surface area, high porosity, reusability and thermal stability for the removal of pollutants from effluent. These filamentous algae grow widely in irrigation streams, causing decreasing speed of water flow and are not even eaten by livestock so are considered agricultural wastes. They can be used as precursors for activated carbon preparation and as adsorbent for the dye removal. The data of initial dye concentration (50-200 mg//L), pH of dye solution (3-9), adsorbent dosage (0.25-2 g/L), and contact time (5-200 min),
