The Magnetic nanoporous material Fe/MCM-41 was prepared, and its physical characterization studied, to determine the effect of its properties on separation efficiency of methyl orange (MO) from wastewater by adsorption process. The experimental results were analyzed for both adsorbent mesoporous material samples, MCM-41 and magnetic Fe/MCM-41, in order to select the best operating conditions for the different studied parameters, which are: constant temperature (20 °C), pH: (2) adsorbent dosage (0.03 gm), contact time (10minute) and concentrations (30mg/L). The results demonstrate that the adsorption processes can be well fitted by the Langmuir isotherm model for pure MCM-41, with a correlation coefficient of (0.999), and fitted by the Freundlich isotherm model for magnetic Fe/ MCM-41, with a correlation coefficient of (0.994). The adsorption kinetics of MO on to MCM-41 and Fe/MCM-41 are well described by a pseudo-second-order kinetic model.
