This work consists in the synthesis of mesoporous silica of high surface area and its use for wastewater treatment in the removal of toxic metals and organic compounds, and their use together with CaCO3 and aqueous extract of the leaves of the plant Musa spp (Banana) that probably contains tannins. There are several studies on the use of mesoporous silica, vegetable tannin and calcium carbonate, which have efficiency in the removal of toxic metals and organic compounds of bodies of water and wastewater. Silica is an inorganic polymer of formula minimum SiO2, with many studies using silica show its efficiency in removing the majority of contaminants from water by adsorption and / or precipitation with organic or inorganic contaminants such and the silica may still be used several times after its purification. The tannins are polihidroxifenois of plant origin (with mass between 500 and 3000 g / mol) and CaCO3 is a mineral with many uses. As tannins, the use of calcium carbonate to sewage treatment has proved to be a simple and efficient method. As a sample for testing for metal removal using the compounds separately and then together we used a standard solution of the salts of toxic metals of the 1st and 3rd groups analytical containing the transition metals of the periodic table and Al3+, which groups are Analytical known concentration (1st group: Ag+, Pb2+ HG22+; 3rd group: Al3+, Cr2+, Fe2+, Mn2+, Zn2+, Co2+ and Ni2+), where the tests were done and efficiency additions of compounds to remove the contaminants. Both tests of efficiency and plus shown remove much of micro organic and inorganic pollutants, and the concentration of organic compounds measured by COD reduced to levels below 5 mg / l and metals such as Al3+, Fe2+ and Pb2+ were removed from the solution 95% efficiency compared to the initial concentration.
