Converting Banana Peels from Agricultural residues to Advantageous Substances
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Engineering and Technology - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 5
Abstract
Constantly, increase and vary the human needs and its requirements that don’t expire as a result of witnessed development of the life in all fields. Whenever the technology is advance in any area, increased human welfare and rebound his life, whenever it is at the expense of earth planet environment where human live in it along with other organisms. The most important of these problems is the problem of environmental pollution with various and different types of toxic and harmful contaminants. This paper is related to the ability of Banana Peel (BP) to remove hexavalent chromium Cr (VI) ions from simulated synthetic aqueous solutions (SSAS) by adsorption process, after extraction of Polyphenol Oxidase (PPO) enzyme from BP. The results show that best ability of BP to produce PPO enzyme by extraction process and the maximum yield of enzyme produced was 14.75% and also show that high capability of BP waste residue to remove Cr (VI) from SSAS with removal efficiency reach to 93.75%. Statistical model is achieved to find mathematical expression combined all operating parameters used in adsorption process in one equation.The synthesis of cheap liquid varnish and rodenticide from BP waste remaining was investigated. The results obtained illustrate that the synthesis liquid varnish give a high luster on the lather tested and the prepared rodenticide give good ability as used. By this way it can possess different benefits which are: produced an important type of enzyme which is PPO, remove hexavalent chromium Cr (VI) contaminated the water and get rid of agricultural waste BP, i.e. it can discard more than type of pollutants in aneconomic and eco-friendly method. Keywords: banana peel, PPO, extraction, Cr (VI),adsorption, varnish, and rodenticide
