Agricultural wastes are considered as viable alternatives because of their abundant availability, low cost and also with various functional groups such as carboxylic acid, ester, carboxylate, hydroxyl, phenolic and amino that can act as adsorption sites for heavy metal ion. Banana peel waste based biosorbents to remove cadmium from waste water was taken up for the present study. | Response surface methodology as a tool for optimization of metal adsorption by banana peel biochar
