The word absorb can have several different meanings so I will include a few different antonyms for you. If you mean absorb, as in to soak something up then disperse, dissipate, and emit are just a few.

If you mean absorb as in to learn something misunderstand and confusion would be two antonyms.

If you mean absorb as in to be involved in something, i.e. absorbed in his work, then some antonyms would be distracted and inattentive.
