The groundwater (GW) of Bangladesh is predominantly contaminated with arsenic (As) and iron (Fe) which has a bad impact on human health. We tried to remove these elements easily available mahogany-fruit (Swietenia mahagoni) husk charcoal (MHC) banana (Musa acuminata) peduncle (BPC). trial was implemented 3 replications throughout the research. sampled GW contained 0.06 mg As L-1 4.83 Fe L-1. Firstly, pH 3, 5, 7, 9 250 dose. MHC removed almost 91.05% at 5.0, BPC 86.67% 9. However, in case Fe, 100% 7 9; same quantity Secondly, contact times were 0, 10, 20, 40 minutes dose 7.0. maximum removal 5 minutes. pseudo-first-order kinetic, pseudo-second-order intra-particle diffusion models considered. result showed that rate adsorption followed kinetic model. Lastly, adsorbent doses 50, 150, 250, 350 At highest 79.47% for MHC. Similarly, values 79.29% BPC, indicating are good heavy metals removal.
