Highlights

Banana peels efficiently removes Sr (II) from waste water.

BPP was characterized by SEM and FTIR spectroscopy.

Biosorption process complied with Freundlich and pseudo second order kinetic model.

Biosorption was endothermic and spontaneous according to thermodynamics.

BPP’s regeneration and reusability was successfully checked upto 5 cycles.
