Silver doped PANI/CNT (Ag-PANI/CNT) nanocomposite was synthesized and investigated as adsorbent for its possible application in the elimination of organic dye Brilliant Blue G (BBG). The morphological characteristics of Ag-PANI/CNT were studied using Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy, elemental mapping, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The response of operational parameters given as adsorbent dosage, concentration, pH and contact time for dye removal were investigated by using Response Surface Methodology (RSM).
