ABSTRACT
The study focuses on making packets of deodorizer made from sliced orange peels and charcoal, and combination of sliced orange peels and lavender leaves with charcoal. The researcher used a teabag for its individual packaging.
The researchers investigated if there is a significant difference between the orange peel-charcoal shoe deodorizer and the orange peel-charcoal-lavender leaves shoe deodorizer.
Orange peel is the leathery exocarp or skin that contains numerous oil glands. The lavender is part of a plant usually used as ingredient of potpourri. The plant is also grown commercially for extraction of lavender oil from the flowers. This oil is used as an antiseptic and for aromatherapy. Charcoal is a product known for it effectively absorbs and traps odors.
The orange peels were sliced into cubes, lavender leaves was cut into small pieces and the charcoal was rubbed into powdered form. These components are placed inside an empty tea bag according to its combination with its corresponding measurements.
The researcher concluded that based on the 1 week investigation, the shoe deodorizer that contains the combination of orange peels, lavender leaves and charcoal, worked out the best. While the shoe...
