Establishment of severe environmental roles by governments and economical consideration have caused a great attention toward removal of pollutants from industrial wastes to prevent them from entering the environment. Dyes are among these pollutants which are widely used by textile and carpet industries. Different methods such adsorption by different adsorbents are used to eliminate these polluting agents from wastes. In the present work the feasibility of using a special form of graphite known as exfoliated graphite (EG) for removal of dyes by adsorption process was investigated experimentally. For this purpose elimination of three different kinds of dyes from synthetic colored solution was studied. Four main effecting parameters were determined to study their effects on the adsorption ability of EG for the purpose of this work. The two parameters of nitric acid/sulfuric acid ratio and temperature of high temperature heat treatment were related to the synthesis process of adsorbent whereas concentration of dyes in the solution and adsorbent to solution ratio were other factors related to adsorption stage. To decrease the number of required experiments and determining the contribution of each factor, the Taguchi method was used for design of the experiments. By using this method and application of orthogonal array, L 16 , optimum condition for eliminating each dye was predicted, which these conditions were approved by doing confirmation experiments. According to the obtained results, EG is able to completely eliminate each dye at its optimum condition. Also desorption experiments proved that the used adsorbent can be recovered partially and reused.
