In this study, peels of different plants i.e Bitter Apple, Cucumber, Persimmon, unripe orange and activated carbon from used dry cell were used. Organic functional groups present in them adsorb the heavy metals and reduces their concentration. Moreover, Activated Carbon which has proved to be a versatile adsorbent and a potential candidate in treatment of waste water was also used. Results from all above materials were separately obtained and comparatively analyzed which was very helpful in explaining their efficiency.
