This study optimizes polyethylenimine (PEI) impregnation on powdered activated carbon (PAC) to maximize adsorption of the anionic dye Reactive Yellow 2 (RY2). Three factors, namely PEI molecular weight (600, 800, 1200, 10,000 and 70,000 g mol-1), PEI content (0.1-10 wt.%), and impregnation stirring speed (0-200 rpm), were systematically evaluated in triplicate. Under optimal conditions (PEI Mw = 800 g mol-1, PEI content = 1.0 wt.%, stirring = 40 rpm), PEI-impregnated PAC achieved a maximum adsorption capacity of 477.02 mg g-1, which is 7.4-fold higher than raw PAC (64.13 mg g-1). FT-IR, BET, FE-SEM/EDS, and zeta potential analyses showed that although PEI impregnation reduced surface area, the introduced amine groups increased the surface charge by + 52.64 mV at pH 2, driving the enhanced adsorption. These results demonstrate that PEI-impregnated activated carbon is a strong and efficient adsorbent for RY2 removal in textile wastewater treatment.
