The use of cheap, high-efficiency, and ecofriendly adsorbent has been studied as an alternative way for the removal of dyes from wastewater. This paper investigated the use of waste brewery's yeast for the removal of acid orange 7 from aqueous solution. The optimum removal of acid orange 7 was found to be 3.561 mg/g at pH 2.0, 10 mg/L initial concentration and 303 K. The kinetic studies indicated that the biosorption process of acid orange 7 agreed well with the pseudo-second-order model. The external diffusion is the rate-controlling step of the initial fast adsorption (<20 min) and then the intraparticle diffusion dominated the mass transfer process. Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin-Radushkevich models were applied to describe the biosorption isotherm of acid orange 7 by waste brewery's yeast. Langmuir isotherm model fits the equilibrium data, at all the studied temperatures, better than the other isotherm models which indicates monolayer dye biosorption process. The highest monolayer biosorption capacity was found to be 2.27 x 10⁻³ mol/g at 303 K. The calculated thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔS, ΔH) showed the biosorption process to be spontaneous and exothermic in nature. Amine or amino, amide, carboxyl, phosphate groups are responsible for the dyes biosorption based on the result of Fourier transform infrared analysis.
