The increasing generation of agro-industrial waste has intensified soil and water contamination, as well the eutrophication bodies, impacting biodiversity human health. This highlights need for responsible management to meet Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 3, 6, 12, 13, 14, 15, which promote health, access clean water, consumption, climate action, protection life on land below water. study aimed produce activated carbon from cocoa, baru, monguba residues removal contaminants dyes (methylene blue, bromocresol green, methyl red) presented in wastewater. three materials were carbonized at 500 °C one hour under a nitrogen atmosphere with H3PO4. samples characterized using TGA, SEM, XRD, FT-IR, pHPZC, ASAP, addition conducting kinetic thermodynamic parameter assays dyes. Monguba exhibited highest pore volume (1.57 cm3·g−1), surface area (1604 m2·g−1), adsorption capacity methylene blue red (50 mg·g−1). data analyzed pseudo-first pseudo-second order models. It was concluded that shows potential sustainable organic molecules similar characteristics contaminated or
