This step was made by us to make a floor wax out of banana peel: first, he mix
800g paraffin wax w/100g, polyethylene wax, then, it was melted in a low fire. While still
hot, add wax crystals and technical dye and stir the mixture. Then, add 3.2 liters of
kerosene. After mixing, add the banana peel, Stir it and leave it after 3min. then pour in

CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION
As of now, our country is facing a great crisis in economy. We found out that in
school, they required using of floor wax (commercial) to keep the floor shiny. Even in
the houses, floor wax is being use. So, we decided to make a floor wax which is very

This study can give benefits to the people especially to the poor once, to have a
good business and also to save money for their other needs. Especially in schools, it
will give a benefit to the students as well as their parents to save money.
Scope and Limitations
This study is only limited for the investigation of banana (Musa paradisiaca) used
as alternative source for floor wax making. The researcher chose this study for further

CHAPTER II: REVIEW AND RELATED LITERATURE
BANANA is the common name for a fruit and also the herbaceous plants of the
genus Musa which produce the commonly eaten fruit. They are native to the tropical
region of Southeast Asia and Australia. Today, they are cultivated throughout the
tropics.
Banana plants are of the family Musaceae. They are cultivated primarily for their fruit,
and to a lesser extent for the production of fiber and as ornamental plants. As the
bananas are mainly tall, upright, and fairly sturdy, they are often mistaken for trees,
when the truth is the main or upright stem is called a pseudo stem, literally meaning
"fake stem", which for some species can obtain a height of up to 2–8 m, with leaves of
up to 3.5 m in length. Each pseudo stem would produce a bunch of yellow, green, or
even red bananas before dying and being replaced by another pseudo stem.
Banana leaves are widely used as plates and for lining cooking pits and for
wrapping food for cooking or storage. A section of leaf often serves as an eye-shade. In
Latin America, it is a common practice during rains to hold a banana leaf by the petiole,
upside-down, over one's back as an "umbrella" or "raincoat". The leaves of the 'Fehi'
Based on the following data, we made a better study related to this project and
found out that banana floor wax could give also almost the same quality which the
We would highly recommend that we could use banana floor wax instead of busy
commercial floor wax in the market because it is cheaper and fits in our budget.
Therefore, we concluded that banana floor wax could be used as an alternative source
of commercial one.
Musa sapientum (banana peels) have been used in conjunction with other
substances to remedy the achy and painful symptoms of arthritis. They are composed
of nutritive chemicals, minerals, and nonnutritive chemicals. Banana peels have both
highly beneficial and highly dangerous constituents and can be manipulated to serve
