Because of sharply develop of textile dyeing industries across the world, there is widely used of heavy metals in textile dyeing industry which cause significant effects on environments. Various adsorbents have been used to remove heavy metal ions from textile waste effluent. Rice husk, sand, clays, baggase, tea waste, fly ash etc are among the
common adsorbents used, mixture of sand and fly ash in acidic medium is a good adsorbent to remove the heavy metal ions from textile effluent(dyeing and finishing process waste water). The Adsorption is an effective and successful technique for removal of heavy metals from effluent received from textile dyeing industries. This work introduces the feasibility of using mixture of sand and fly ash in presence of hydrochloric acid. The adsorbent order of metal uptake capacities in μmol g-1 for extraction of five metals ions from aqueous solution using adsorption techniques is Cu(II)>Pb(II)>Cr(II)>Zn(II)>Co(II). In this study, adsorbents sand and coal fly ash, available as natural resources in all areas of our country are examined as viable materials for treatment of Cu,Pb,Cr,Zn & Co containing in textile dyeing and finishing process effluent at controlled pH. The results obtained from this study revealed a relative ability of mixture of sand and fly ash in presence of hydrochloric acid and totally depends on pH,concentration of solution, adsorbent dose, size of the particles of adsorbent, temperature and time.
