The process of manufacturing Sasirangan - a traditional fabric of South Kalimantan - has an impact that affects environmental pollution, namely the dyeing process of the fabric. The synthetic dyes used contain heavy metals and one of those toxic metals is copper (Cu). This study aims to determine the adsorption capacity of rice husk activated carbon adsorbent by adjusting the adsorption pattern based on isotherm models as the treatment to sasirangan liquid waste. The method consists of three stages: preparation of adsorbent by carbonization process, chemical and physical activation, then continued by adsorption process of Cu metal with carbon from rice husks with variations of adsorbent dose (2, 4, and 6 grams). This treatment was conducted by batch process. In this reseach, the adsorption capacity of rice husk adsorbent towards heavy metal Cu in sasirangan liquid waste was determined from the equilibrium state with the Langmuir isotherm equation and Freundlich isotherm equation. Based on isothermal studies of adsorption data, the correlation coefficient values obtained from the isotherm model approaches are: for dose of 2 grams adsorbent, Langmuir R2 = 0.9991 and Freundlich R2 = 0.9981; for dose of 4 grams adsorbent, Langmuir R2 = 0.9992 and Freundlich R2 = 0.9989; for dose of 6 grams adsorbent, Langmuir R2 = 0.9990 and Freundlich R2 = 0.9986. The results of investigation indicate that adsorption data correlated well with Langmuir isotherm model.
