A novel nanoparticle (NPs) iron oxyhydroxide modified with rice husk (RH + FeOOH) was synthesized with wet chemical method. Batch study was performed to investigate fluoride removal and adsorption capacity. The RH + FeOOH NPs were characterized by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, scanning electron microscope with energy dispersion, transmission electron microscope, and particle size analyzer. By varying parameters, batch adsorption with adsorption capacity was performed such as contact time, stirring rate, adsorbent dosage, temperature, initial concentration, and pH. The BET surface area and the pore volume of the FeOOH and RH + FeOOH were found to be 157 m² g⁻¹, 195 m² g⁻¹ and 0.136 m² g⁻¹, 0.224 m² g⁻¹. Based on kinetic study, pseudo-second-order was followed by regression coefficient (R²) 0.99. Langmuir isotherm model showed the best adsorption capacity of 26 mg g⁻¹. Moreover, the RH + FeOOH showed best affinity towards fluoride removal and may act as an excellent adsorbent for fluoride treatment from aqueous solution.
