Abstract Access to safe drinking water remains a major public health challenge due to microbial and chemical contamination. The present study focuses on the development and evaluation of an eco-friendly effervescent water purifier powder formulated using onion peel, an abundant agricultural waste rich in plant derived compounds.The effervescent formulation was prepared using onion peel powder in combination with citric acid, sodium bicarbonate, activated charcoal, and natural excipients.The prepared powder was evaluated for bioactive properties, plant-derived constituents, microbiological efficacy, and water clarity improvement using soil and sewage water samples. Results demonstrated rapid effervescence, effective pH neutralization, significant reduction in microbial load (up to 93%), and notable decrease in turbidity within four hours of treatment. Phytochemical screening confirmed the presence of tannin, saponins, terpenoids, and cardiac glycosides contributing to antimicrobial activity. The study concludes that onion peel-based effervescent powder offers a cost-effective, sustainable, and efficient solution for point-of-use water purification, especially in resource-limited settings.
Keywords Onion peel waste; Effervescent water purifier; Agricultural waste utilization; Antimicrobial water purification; Sustainable water treatment.
