The current study explored batch testing to adsorb Ni(II) onto Tabeubea rosea leaves activated by zinc chloride (TRZCAC), assessing parameters like contact time, pH, adsorbent amount, initial metal ion concentration, and temperature. Characterization via BET, FTIR, SEM, EDX, and TGA analyses revealed TRZCAC's surface area (693.113 m2/g) and morphology. Optimal conditions were determined as pH 6, 0.5g adsorbent dose, 120 min adsorption time, and 50 mg L-1 Ni(II) concentration, yielding a 91.29% removal and 22.47 mg/g adsorption capacity. Pseudo-second-order kinetics described adsorption, which was spontaneous and exothermic. Freundlich isotherm and second-order kinetics best fit the data. The findings suggest TRZCAC as a potential eco-friendly biosorbent for Ni(II) removal from wastewater, owing to its effective adsorption capacity and favorable operating conditions.
