The surface morphology and Surface Chemistry of plantain peel activated biochar (PPAB) viz-a-viz PPAB efficacy in Rhodamine B (RhB) dye adsorption is presented in this data article. The surface morphology shows pores of various shapes and sizes consequence of activation. Surface Chemistry revealed functional groups such as –OH and C = O of amide. Adsorption of RhB was observed to increase with increased pH and optimum adsorption was observed at pH of 7 with percentage removal of 54.78%. Increase in temperature had negligible effect on RhB removal. RhB uptake increased with increase in PPAB dosage up to 0.3 mg/L and increased contact time aided RhB removal with optimum adsorption of 84.41 mg/g at 120 min.
