Abstract:
Waste and ripe plantain peels preserve crucial Phyto-vitamins (selected phytochemicals, minerals, and proximate) that may be recycled into beneficial materials like manures and fertilizers. Extraction and isolation of Nano biofertilizer using the peels of ripe plantain was the major goal of this research. The aqueous extracted, alkaline (NaOH) activated (1 %, 2%,3%, 4% & 5%) and citric-urea changed(5 %) ripe plantain Nano-fertilizer were subjected to physicochemical characterizations(, moisture content material, ash content, electric conductivity, total nitrogen, general phosphorus, overall potassium, and overall natural carbon) at pH 6.8, 7.0, 7.6, 9.5 and 11.2.The common floor regions and diameters of synthesize Nano fertilizer underneath the mapped alkaline circumstance using photo J nanoparticles software are1%(nil),2%(64.16 ± 31.23nm2; 27.67 ± 7.03nm), 3%(262.05 ± 37.32nm2; 57.37 ± 4.18nm), 4% (353.71 ± 40.04nm2; 68.39 ± 3.90nm) and 5% (480.59 ± 67.90nm2; 77.51 ± 5.55nm). Ripe plantain peels have been modified and stabilized for use as a bio Nano-fertilizer with the capacity of managing the particle size bodily /chemically at Nano degree and salvaging the environmental pressure from agro wastes.
