1. Introduction Heavy metals are defined as those cations having
an atomic number of greater than 23.
They are not easily removed from wastewater by
conventional treatment
Examples: Metal Removal

As 38
Co 37
Ni 59

Several methods that have been employed for removal
of heavy metals example are:
1. Post precipitation.
2. Chemical treatment.
3. Biological method.
4. Activated carbon adsorption.
But these methods show several limitations such as:
1. Costly
2. Weak effectiveness
3. Low efficiency

2. Aim of the Study
The aim of this work was to study the
utilization of locally available very low cost
material, namely dry palm tree leaves (DPTL),
as filter media for removal of toxic metals from
secondary effluent.

3. Environmental Significance
Heavy metals are stable and do not easily
degrade with the following environmental features
Accumulation (environmental build-up)
Bioconcentration (within living organism)
Biomagnifications (through the food chain)

Form of heavy metal
Concentration
Tolerance of receiving organism
Heavy metals are discharged from
industries as well as Household.

6. Removal of Heavy Metals
Biological Processes are not able to remove
heavy metals simply because heavy metals
are dissolved (are present in solution form)

depends on specific metal ... Each metal
have optimal pH-value for removal.

7. Method and Materials
The experiment was performed in a
small (Package) treatment plant of
residential villa-compound North of
Riyadh city. The secondary effluent
from the plant was med for this
experiment.

7. Method and Materials
The effluent was sampled and fed to a
column (0.25 m diameter, 1.0 m height)
containing 0.45 m of shredded and
condensed dry palm tree leaves;
covered by a metal mesh.

9. Conclusions1. This method showed promising results in reduction
of heavy metals namely; As, B, Sr, and Ba, from
wastewater effluents using local and readily-
available material; dry palm tree leaves.
2. More experiments should be conducted for longer
period of time to validate this results.
3. Mechanisms of removal of Heavy metals by this
method thought to be adsorption and sieving effects
of the palm tree leaves.
