ABSTRACT : Industrialization has caused widespread contamination of water and soil, which affects crops and soil when waste waters are used for irrigation. This problem is known as severe insanitation. The goal of this study was to naturally clean up industrially contaminated water effluent discharge. Many natural cleaners made from medicinal plant seeds are available. Moringa oleifera (M), Sapindus mukorossi (S), Canna indica L. (C), and Lagerstroemia speciosa (L) are the plant seeds that were selected. The crushed seeds are used in the current investigation to clean the contaminated water. For ten days, the primary treatment of the effluents is combined with charcoal generated from the seed shell's outer layer. Five trail groups were intended for the trial. T2 is the MS group, T3 and T4 are the SS and CS groups, and T5 is the LS group. T1 is the control group. The findings indicate that Sample T2 has a pH rate of 8.99 ± 0.38*, which is greater than Sample T1's lowest rate of 5.98 ± 0.32. Sample T2 exhibits the highest turbidity rate at 1010 ± 26.45*, whereas Sample C displays a rate of 430 ± 27.20*. The DO levels in Sample T3 are the lowest at 2.8 ± 0.17* and the highest at 4.15 ± 1.05*. Sample A (59 ± 7.93) and Sample B (59 ± 6.24*) had identical BOD values. 57 ± 11.26* less is shown by sample T3 than by samples T1 and T2. The maximum nitrate content is (840 ± 31.96*). The outcome indicates that fish aquaculture and crop irrigation can both benefit from the treated and purified water derived from medicinal plant seeds.
