The discovery suggests that such easily available materials can be used for water

treatment in communities where there is little electricity or no access to water

purification facilities. One of the most crucial problems affecting the world today is the
scarcity of potable water. This problem is expected to worsen in the future because of
over usage, lack of conservation and dwindling natural supplies of clean water, even in
countries with significant water resources. Furthermore, most water purification
technologies available today are not easily accessible to economically disadvantaged
communities around the world. The challenge, therefore, is to develop robust water
purification methods that can carry out water treatment at low cost, with minimal energy
consumption and using fewer chemicals in the process in order to reduce the negative
impact on the environment.

Banana peel and apple peel are helpful in purifying water. Both have a acids and other
purifying molecule that aren’t harmful to people.One of the most biggest source of water
conatamination is heavy metals. Lead, mercury, iron and other naturally occurring
metals finds their way into our water sources by both natural and man-made means
such as agricultural and industrial waste and run-off. They are lethal to us and the
unfortunate part is that they build up in our bodies slowly over time. Lead and mercury
in particular build up and can damage the nervous system and, specifically, your brain.
Banana peels, which are now being studied extensively for use as a water filter, contain
atoms of sulfur and nitrogen, along with carboxylic acid and other compounds. The
carboxylic acid ions become negatively charged and the heavy metals in water tend to
be positively charged. The metals dissolved (or floating) in the water are attracted to the
acids, which are bound to the banana peels. They stick to the peels and can be
removed when you take the peels out of the water.

Heavy metal ions and dissolved organic compounds in waste water are
known to adversely affect
human health, aquatic life and the overall ecosystem. Many hazardous
pollutants need to be removed
from drinking water; however, such technologies are not accessible for
economically disadvantaged
people around the world. Naturally abundant tomato peels or other
biomembranes are used as an
efficient biomaterial to remove toxic metal ions and organic pollutants from
aqueous solution. The
functional groups and morphologies of the tomato peels were characterized
using FT-IR and
FESEM, respectively. Factors such as pH, nature and amount of adsorbent
used for extraction were
studied to establish the optimum conditions. The maximum adsorption
capacity was observed at
different pH values for different pollutants. The equilibrium adsorption data
were interpreted by
using Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms and the adsorption mechanism was
investigated by kinetic
studies. Results showed that tomato peels have good potential as an efficient
adsorbent to remove
various pollutants from water.
