aimed to improve the efficiency of grease traps. In the meantime, adsorption was used to decrease the con
centration of BOD5 and phosphate. moringa oleifera and commercial activated carbon (Powdered Activated
Carbon, that produced from carbonaceous raw materials, coconut shell, and wood) were the adsorption media
used in this analysis. The findings of this study showed the grease trap capability in which it could remove
89.83% of fats and oils by using three compartments. When considering the optimum condition achieved by
using moringa oleifera as the adsorbent, it was found that more than 85% of both BOD5 and phosphate can be
removed with an adsorbent height of 15 cm and an adsorption tube diameter of 15 cm. Additionally, Thomas
Model was fitted by moringa oleifera and commercial adsorbents to explain the pattern of adsorption of BOD5 and
phosphate in wastewater. The results of the model showed a maximum reduction in BOD5 690 mg/g and
phosphate 0.215 mg/g by moringa oleivera adsorbents. This research investigated the effectiveness of Moringa
oleifera as an adsorbent, cnsidering the basic surface area characteristics, pore diameter, and pore volume of
Moringa oleifera as an adsorbent.
