The heavy metals copper sulfate and lead nitrate are used in this study which are degraded by household waste the egg shells, banana peels, and pumpkin peels. The egg shell powder, banana peel powder, and pumpkin powder are prepared as an adsorbent and treated with heavy metals copper sulfate solution and lead nitrate solution. After the treatment with the both, the heavy metal solution with all the three adsorbents showed the toxicity reduction by checking with pH 2–pH 5 using pH meter.
