• Abstract:

  The increase of industrial waste

  and the resulting water contamination, especially

  with metallic ions, which in high concentrations

  can be harmful to human health and the

  environment, require treatment processes

  that are efficient and affordable in cost. The

  adsorption with activated coal has been the

  most widely used method, but its high cost and

  difficulty of regeneration has generated interest

  in finding alternative adsorbents, also called

  biosorbents, which are low in cost and easy

  to access, such as the banana bark. From the

  production of the banana bark flour, we intend to

  test the adsorption capacity and efficiency in the

  removal of metallic ions using this biosorbent

  chemically modified with citric acid solution
