REMOVAL OF AQUEOUS CONTAMINANTS USING BANANA PEELWASTE

Agricultural waste such as banana peels remains vastly unexploited. In this study, banana peels which were collected from local market are used to produce adsorbent for removing lead and copper ions from wastewater. The banana peels were washed, dried and grounded into powder. The effects of certain...
