This work employed the microwave-assisted method to prepare activated carbons from byproducts of Areca catechu (ACAC) shells and Nypa fruticans (ACNF) nut shells. The results show that materials have a rough surface like coral reef contains characteristic functional groups such as O-H, C=O, C=C, C-O with an amorphous structure. Surface area pore size were also evaluated ACAC 195.93 m2 g-1 ACNF 514.91 g-1. adsorption isotherms predict pores small mesopores. factors affecting ciprofloxacin using derived carbon evaluated. For ACAC, best optimized conditions contact time 90 min, temperature 40 ºC, pH 6, dosage 2 g L-1, concentration 80 mg whereas for ACNF, 4, 1 L-1. samples follow pseudo-second-order (PSO) kinetic model, Elovich Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) Temkin isotherms. Langmuir model was used record maximal capacities ciprofloxacin, which 57.60 67.59 g-1, respectively. process occurs by diffusion chemisorption interactions on homogeneous heterogeneous ACNF.

Antibiotic contamination in pharmaceutical wastewater poses environmental and public health risks. This study synthesized a nanocomposite ceramic adsorbent from clay, cow bone powder (hydroxyapatite nanoparticles), human hair for antibiotic removal. The exhibited high mechanical strength (3.6 bar), chemical stability, large surface area (171.32 m2 g-1). Characterization (FTIR, XRD, FE-SEM, BET) confirmed successful nanoparticle incorporation. In vertical fixed-bed column, optimal removal occurred at pH 7, 25 g adsorbent, °C, 40 min contact time. Adsorption was endothermic, following pseudo-first-order intraparticle diffusion models. retained >90% efficiency after 142 regeneration cycles, proving its durability cost-effectiveness.
