In this research ,the activated charcoal derived from almonds shell was found to have a good non conventional adsorbent used for the adsorption of Bovine serum albumin (BSA) and egg white albumin (EWA) .In the present study pH=6 of BSA and contact time of 80 min as well as EWA of pH =2 and contact time of 80min .The effect of doses shows that activated charcoal from almonds shell of 0.2 g for BSA, EWA respectively .The effect of temperature and thermodynamic functions wear also studied and found that the adsorption ratio decrease with increase the temperature and the reactions was exothermic and spontaneous .After fixing the best conditions for the adsorption .The results were analyzed by the Langmiur, Freundlich equation using linearized correlation coefficient ,the pseudo first order rate equation by Lagergren was tested on the kinetic.
