description The use of banana leaves as a one of the bio-waste adsorbent was studied to find its effectiveness removing chromium and copper ions from simulated solutions. Eight types of adsorbent were prepared through physical and chemical treatments with four adsorbents for each treatment consist of 1 non-calcined and 3 calcined at different temperatures. Banana leaves for removing Cr and Cu ions were investigated as function of dose, contact time and initial concentration. The most effective adsorbent for the removal chromium ions was 86.92% by CCT350 (1.0g dose, 50ppm/100ml and 120 minutes), while for the copper ions CPT550 adsorbent was capable to remove until 98.53% adsorbent at the condition 50ml/50ppm of copper ions solution, 0.5g adsorbent and 30 minutes’ agitation.
