The main goal of this study is to prepare a low cost activated carbon using waste pomegranate peels.It was new research no one can directly use silver chloride loading on pomegranate peels adsorbent. Carbon will be modified by loading with silver nanoparticle for waste water treatment. Activated carbons were prepared from and pomegranate peel (Punica granatum ) using sodium hydroxide (alkali) as the activating agent. Loading of silver nanoparticle was confirmed by atomic spectrometry ( AAS) .The silver nanoparticle loaded pomegranate peels has been studied for chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD).The adsorption of microbes as well as other organics will be tested for waste water.
