The　adsorption　property　of　C.　camphora　fallen　leaves　powder　(CFLP)　to　methyl　violet　(MV)　from　aqueous　solution　was　studied　in　this　work.　The　results　showed　that　the　CFLP　has　considerable　adsorption　property　to　MV.　The　percentage　adsorption　reached　91%　in　50mgL(-1)　of　MV　solution　at　dosage　0.6mgL(-1).　The　adsorption　kinetics　for　MV　on　the　CFLP　follow　a　pseudo-second-order　pathway,　and　the　adsorption　equilibrium　data　can　be　described　well　by　the　Langmuir　isotherm　model　compared　to　Freundlich　isotherm　model.　Intra-particle　diffusion　is　not　the　only　rate-controlling　step　and　combination　of　mechanisms　was　involved　in　the　entire　adsorption　process　for　MV　on　the　CFLP;　the　adsorption　process　is　endothermic,　spontaneous　and　random.　Therefore,　the　CFLP　can　be　used　as　low-cost　adsorbent　for　refractory　cationic　organic　dye　in　wastewater.
