Abstract

Due to its adsorption properties, fruit peel waste (FPW) is readily available from agriculture and the food processing industry. This article reviewed the function of FPW in the management of waste water. Additionally, this article provided information on the use of absorbent materials and modelling in waste water treatment using nanotechnology. The investigation showed that there was little literature on the properties and behavior of commercial plants’ adsorbents. The results for FPW as adsorbents were also not readily available. However, due to its affordability, FPW was regarded as an efficient method of waste water treatment. The available research verified that FPW was a highly effective adsorbent for removing heavy metals and dyes. More research is needed to understand how FPW adsorbents behave, while removing organic and gaseous contaminants.
