Abstract
This project intends to find the potential of banana peels to act as water purifiers because of their low cost and because they don’t have to be chemically modified in order to work. Banana peels are collected and dried. They are grained and sieved. The sieved peel particles are added into automotive industrial waste water. Tests are done for copper and lead before and after the adding process of banana. By this way the percentage of removal of copper and lead from automotive waste water by using banana peels is 93.52 and 87.44%. Banana processes, runoff from farms and industrial wastes can all put heavy metals, such as lead and copper in to waterways. Heavy metals can have adverse health and environmental effects. Current methods of removing heavy metals from water are expensive, parallel some substances used in the process are toxic themselves.
