Abstract: This study was conducted to explore the sorption capacity of three different industrial prepared products of Stereospermum kunthianum plant for the removal of some heavy metal ions from waste water.The plant stem-bark was first immobilized by entrapping the biosorbent with in a polymetric matrix of calcium alginate to produce immobilized stem-bark (IMSB). The stem-bark was also synthesised by reacting it with Acrylamide at 60oc using Ceric Ammonium Nitrate as an initiator to obtaine grafted stem-bark (GSB) and the plant stem-bark was also mixed with glutaraldehyde to obtained Membrane stem-bark.
