N2 - Adsorption isotherms have been determined experimentally for the single-component adsorption of three dyes, namely, Basic Red 22, Basic Yellow 21, and Basic Blue 69 onto carbon. In addition, the three possible bisolute isotherms and the one trisolute isotherm for these three dyes were determined. In each case the Langmuir, Freundlich and Jossens isotherm constants were determined and the Langmuir data were then used to correlate and predict the multicomponent isotherm data from single-component data in a simplified manner.
