The research findings of sorption purification of test water environment, containing Congo red dye, by using this crop farming waste as a sorption material have indicated that the maximum sorption capacity of its biomass amounts to 0.37 mmol/g. The electronic microscopy data and the research findings of physical-chemical and sorp-tion properties of a new vegetable sorption material, obtained from sunflower (Heliánthus ánnuus) stalks, are presented. The processing of the data demonstrated that the obtained adsorption isotherm of Congo red belongs to Type V isotherms according to classification by Brunauer-Deming-Deming-Teller (BDDT) or to the S-type, according to Giles’ classification. With that, adsorption process is the most accurately described by the Freundlich model, and the process proceeds on the heterogeneous surface of the sorption material.
