Implication

This analysis demonstrates high efficacy of orange peels for adsorbing lead, chromium, and copper, suggesting a low-cost method for wastewater treatment.

Key Points

Orange peels effectively remove lead, chromium, and copper from wastewater, achieving removal rates above 96%.
Removal efficacy of lead reached 99.81%, while chromium's maximum was 99.58%, and copper ranged from 45.73% to 96.33%.
Adsorption was characterized using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models, with Langmuir providing the best fit for the data.
The significant removal efficiency at varying pH levels highlights the potential for orange peels in practical wastewater remediation.
