Since durian is one of the most lucrative fruits for farmers and exporters, the area used for durian harvesting in Malaysia has increased over the previous five years. When compared to other durian kinds, the Musang King durian from Malaysia has a Brix level between 39 and 44, making it one of the sweetest (Peter Chung, 2019). When durian peel is burned or otherwise disposed of, it creates toxic air pollution and contributes significantly to landfill garbage. The average weight of all durian fruit in the nation is around 255,353 MT. An abundant agricultural by product, durian peel (DP) is put to good use in the dye industry and in the removal of organic and inorganic pollutants. In this research, the mycotoxin adsorption efficiency of durian peel was increased by treating it with acid.
