## Abstract
The purpose of this study was to provide an alternative by using banana peel adsorbent in reducing lead (Pb) levels in leachate and to find out which types of banana peels were most effective in reducing lead (Pb) levels in leachate. This study uses three types of banana Kepok, ambon, and cavendish. The material was analyzed using atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS) and analyzed using the adsorption capacity equation. The results showed that the largest adsorption capacity was adsorbent from Kepok banana peel with an adsorption capacity of 23 mg/g.
