المستخلص

Banana peels have been studied as a potential biosorbent for the decontamination of water pollutants. They are considered promising due to their wide availability, efficiency, and low cost compared to commercial adsorbents like activated carbon. The peel exhibits efficient removal of pollutants at various temperatures, with adsorption capacities mostly within 1–100 mg/g. Comparatively, both banana peel and activated carbon have been effective in water filtration. However, the effectiveness can depend on various factors such as the type of pollutant, pH, pollutant concentration, and banana peel dosage.
