In this study, composite adsorbents consisting of a mixture of chitosan (CTS), boron nitride (h-BN) and halloysite (HNT) were used for the adsorption of Acid Violet 90 (AV90) dye in a batch system. Adsorbents CTS, CTS/HNT, CTS/h-BN and CTS/h-BN/HNT beads were prepared by simple dropping method and dried in a freeze dryer. The beads were characterized by FT-IR, SEM and zeta potential analysis. The effects of pH (2-8) and dye concentration (50-250 mg/L) on AV90 adsorption properties of beads were investigated. In addition, Langmuir, Freunlich, Temkin and Henry adsorption isotherm models were used to examine the dye adsorption mechanism. It was observed that the Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherm models were in good agreement with the experimental data. In the dye concentration range studied, the qm values of CTS, CTS/h-BN1, CTS/h-BN3, CTS/ HNT/h-BN1, CTS/HNT/h-BN3, CTS/HNT obtained from the Langmuir isotherm model was 27.62, 17.80, 10.11, 8.71, 32.57, 19.96 mg/g, respectively. Pseudo -first order, pseudo -second order and intra-particle diffusion kinetic models were used to examine the adsorption kinetics of adsorbents. As a result, it is thought that the use of this study in the field of dye adsorption can be an innovative and important study.
