Abstract
Removal of pesticide residues from water samples was done in the laboratory by using physical methods such as micronized charcoal powder, plant charcoal, peanut crushed shells and zeolite. Most efficient adsorbent recommended for the removal of pesticide residues was micronized charcoal powder followed by plant charcoal and peanut crushed shells. The average of removal percentages for organochlorine pesticides (OCPS) were 92.7 , 89.5, 88.9 and 76.8% for micronized charcoal, plant charcoal, peanut crushed shells and zeolite, respectively. The highest efficiency of zeolite was obtained in the case of dieldrin and P,P¢-DDE (100%), but it was ranged between 77.4 and 83.3 % for orga nophosphorus Pesticides (OPPs), It is recommended to use these natural adsorbents in water remediation as a practical tools in a small scales
