INTRODUCTION
The water resource is currently threatened by pollution because all human activities lead to the production of synthetic organic chemical compounds
in the environment. One of the main pollutants is synthetic dyes used in the textile industry, as well as food dyes such as rhodamine B, metanil
yellow, and malachite green. To remove dyes and other colored contaminants from wastewater, we need green chemistry. i.e., processes that lead to
the use of more environmentally friendly adsorbents that are both cheap and renewable. So, in this study, pozzolan, a natural Algerian siliceous
volcanic filler from the Ain-Temouchent region (Beni-saf), was used as a renewable, available, and inexpensive adsorbent for the removal of the
textile dye malachite green from aqueous solutions.

Sampling at
different times
➢ From the XRD analyses , the PA contains crystalline minerals. according to the most
intense peaks the AP is composed of: quartz, hematite, anorthite and augite, which
confirms the results of XRF (high content of SiO2, Fe2O3 and Al2O3 oxides).

➢ The FT-IR spectrum of the AP shows a broad peak at wavenumbers [1007-1050 cm-1]
-1
which is attributed to the Si-O and Al-O vibration. The band displayed at 3456 cm is
UV-Vis analysis attributed to the stretching vibration of the -OH bond.
➢ high thermal stability up to 600 °C.
➢ A specific surface of 68 m2/g and a slight porosity, low CEC (25 meq/100g).
