Plantain peel adsorbent: Simple preparation, and adsorption at phosphate concentrations similar to those of water sources at risk of eutrophication

There are several investigations on the use of food waste to remove contaminants by adsorption. However, a simple route, without chemical activation reagents, is needed for the development of adsorbents. The aim of this study was to develop an adsorbent from plantain peel, using a simple procedure,...
