The successful synthesis and characterization of AlTiPbO Nanoparticles (ATPO-NPs) using a facile and straight forward co-precipitation method was reported in the present work. The detailed morphological characterization uncovered that the nanoparticles are of 28 nm in size. From the application perspective, the nanoparticles were utilized as a potential adsorbent to remove the toxic and hazardous dye from the aqueous phase. The point by point adsorption studies uncovered that the AlTiPbO nanoparticles made the Eriochrome black-T solution becomes colorless within 90 min. The outcome of the study verified by isotherms and kinetic study measurements and the adsorption system was examined. The nanoparticles have been effectively reused up to fifth cycle of the adsorption. A real sample analysis study revealed that ATPO-NPs could remove high concentrations (1000 mg/g) of dye from the industrial waste sample.
