This research focused on the severity of iron and a quantum equilibrium study of soybean seed coats (SSC) carbon used in the process of iron removal from synthetic solution. Iron is found in soluble and in insoluble form. WHO prescribed the limit of iron is 1.0 mg/L in international standard context and 0.3 mg/L in Indian context. Groundwater quality problem are typically associated with high level of iron concentration observed in some part of India which found the level of 17-20 mg/L of iron. In this research study Soybean seed coats (SSC), activated carbon has been selected for the removal of iron. It has remarkable binding characteristics for removal of iron. It has tested in batch experimental analysis and for different parameters such as dose, pH, Initial concentration, Particle size and Contact time. Maximum uptake capacity of iron was noted at pH 3.5-6.0 with 86.34 % of removal.
