Abstract

Water is important for the survival of human beings. If water contains undesirable particles it will become unfit for our purposes and hence it is necessary to be removed. Water purification is the process of removing physical, chemical and biological contaminants from water. There are various methods in purification of water, but may not be economically feasible. Naturally available herbs have best anti-microbial property, which may restricts the growth of microorganisms and purify water at lower cost. The type of purification can be economically done for waste water from chemical industry. In this research study, the contaminants removal from chemical industry waste water is explored using natural organic adsorbents such as Neem leaf, Curry leaf, and Banana peel powder. These adsorbents are used to reduce pollutants such as oil and grease from the waste water. The purify level of waste water can be found out by conducting various experimental tests for different parameters. The obtained test results are then compared with initial test result to find out which all waste water characteristics had been changed by the use these low cost organic adsorbents.
