Abstract Environmental problems have grown as a result of the emergence of organic contaminants from industrial effluent. It is urgent to adopt and develop an efficient and sustainable technology for removing these pollutants before disposing of them in water resources due to the health risks they pose. In this sense, one of the most promising methods for cleaning up industrial pollution is adsorption employing metal oxides. To make these metal oxide more economical and safe, methods are adopted where the waste material from plant or plant based material are used to fabricate biochar (WBC) and then converted into metal encapsulated nanocomposite (Zn/Co-BC) using appropriate metal salts. This research includes the synthesis of walnut shell based biochar and then combination of Zinc and Cobalt to obtained respective nanocomposite. Both nanocomposites and biochar were accessed by variety of analytical instruments. Furthermore, batch adsorption process was conducted to remove Ciprofloxacin from the polluted water and adsorption was analysed by varying all the reaction conditions such as temperature, concentration, pH and agitation time etc. The (Zn/Co-BC) was also analysed to find the antibacterial activity against Klebsiellia pneumonia and Staphylococcus aureus. The outcomes of both analyses declared biochar and metal encapsulated nanocomposite as tremendous adsorbent and antibacterial agent.
Keywords Walnut shell; Biochar; Nanocomposite; Pollutant adsorption; Antibacterial agent.
