Investigation of the possibility of treating wastewater containing Cu2+ heavy metal with activated carbon material prepared from macadamia husk with activating K2CO3 in Optimal conditions such as temperature 6500C and burning time is 60 minutes. Survey results show that coal with the ability to handle heavy metals is best at 84.02% in optimal conditions such as pH=5 and time. Baking is 30 minutes. The results show similarities with other research results and are applicable to wastewater treatment Cu2+.

Seed coat macadamia preparation of activated carbon with chemical agent K2CO3 from macadamia shells as per ratio: K2CO3: distilled water = 1:1:10ml, optimal temperature condition 6500C and burning time 60 minutes. Efficiency removal of zinc (II) in wastewater efficiency (53.42%) with the concentration of 25ppm, conducted a survey at pH = 4.5 with 1.8g/l of carbon, treated in 100 minutes. Survey results have similarities with other studies and are applicable to application removal of zinc (II) in wastewater.
