Abstract
Peel Kepok Banana (Musa acuminate L.) is one of the types of plants that can be used as an iron-lowering substances that exist in the water, lowering the levels of other heavy metals such as lead, manganese and other variables. Banana peel is made up of a number of nitrogen, sulfur and organic components such as carboxylic acids, cellulose, hemicellulose, pectin substances and chlorophyll pig-ments containing galacturonic acid, arabinose, galactose and rhamnosa. Galacturonic acid can strong-ly bind metal ions which are sugar carboxyl functional groups. Based on preliminary examination in the laboratory was dug well water levels as much substance Iron 1.67 mg / L, whereas the permissible standards for clean water in the Quality Standards Water Quality Standards according Permenkes No. 416 / Menkes / PER / IX / 1990 was 1.0 mg / L. This research was conducted in Dusun Alekanrung De-sa Kanrung Kecamatan Sinjai Tengah Kabupaten Sinjai and laboratory examinations were conducted in the Regional Environmental Agency of South Sulawesi (Laboratorium Badan Lingkungan Hidup Dae-rah Provinsi Sulawesi Selatan), which aims to determine how large a decrease in the level of the metal content of iron (Fe) by using banana peel kepok the dug well water . Type of research is a real experi-ment (Experiment True). The study design used was a pre-test-post-test with control group design, in which there is given a pretest before the treatment. Based on the results of research on Improving the Quality of Water Well Drilling Parameters Based on Iron (Fe) with Utilization of Banana peel Kepok, it can be concluded that the laboratory used to test grade level of iron (Fe) in the dig well wa-ter is treated prior to 1.67 mg / L . Then the rate of decline in the levels of substances Iron (Fe) water after treated with Banana peel Kepok ie weighing 20 g were 0.80 mg / L or 52%, 40 g total of 0.94 mg / L or 43.7% and 60 as much as 0.81 g or 51%. It is expected the people to pay attention to clean water that they use to perform first processing, one alternative is to use a banana peel kepok. To oth-er researchers, it is advisable to examine the benefits of this kepok banana peel with indicators of other parameters
