Abstract:Ciprofloxacin is a widely used antibiotic that can contaminate water sources and pose environmental and health risks. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to explore the green synthesis of iron (III) oxide nanoparticles using Citrus sinensis peel extract for the removal of ciprofloxacin in water using standard techniques. The adsorption of ciprofloxacin on the nanoparticles was investigated under different conditions, such as pH, initial concentration of adsorbate, contact time, and different adsorbent do… Show more
