Industrial waste water is aqueous waste that results from the dissolution or suspension of materials in water. Phenol is the substances that are utilized in the industry. The main aim of the study is to treat the wastewater for the removal of phenol by batch mode adsorption using the agricultural waste that is Manilkara zapota. The characterization of the adsorbent was determined by FTIR, SEM and XRD. The adsorption process is to evaluate the kinetics of adsorption and the pseudo second order kinetics showed good regression value of 0.995 for 60 mg/L. The Langmuir capacity was found to be 9.8 mg/g. The optimum time to reach equilibrium of adsorption is 2 hours. From the findings the Manilkara zapota prove to be a promising adsorbent for the removal of phenol from the aqueous environment.
