Discussion

Adsorbent demonstrates 94.08% Pb2+ and 93.33% Cu2+ removal from aqueous solution, suggesting effective water conservation.

Effective removal of Pb2+ and Cu2+ ions was achieved, indicating the potential of this adsorbent.
Adsorbent stability was confirmed through regeneration across five cycles, ensuring long-term usability.
Chemical modification enhanced the thermal stability and functional groups of Musa paradisiaca peels for improved performance.
The study utilized statistical analysis to optimize the removal process based on kinetic models.

Popoola et al. (2025) studied this question.
