Abstract

This research aimed to determine the percentage of mercury metal ion adsorbed in kapok banana peel’s activated carbon. It was done by applying Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 6 variations of contact time, pH, and mercury concentration (i.e 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 minutes; pH of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6; and concentration of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 ppm, accordingly). The result showed that the equilibrium time was reached at 30 minutes, the maximum pH was reached at pH 5 and the maximum of adsorbed mercury ion at 40 ppm of mercury ion concentration. The adsorption percentages of those parameters were 61%, 98%, and 99%, respectively. Keywords: Kepok banana’s peel, charcoal, mercury metal ion.
