This study introduces a novel green adsorbent based on zinc–iron layered double hydroxides (Zn–Fe LDH) encapsulated with chia seed mucilage for effective CFX removal. The synthesized Zn–Fe LDH/chia seed composite demonstrated exceptional efficacy, achieving 98.5% removal of CFX from water at pH 8.

The composite exhibited excellent regenerability, retaining 85.2% of its initial adsorption capacity after five consecutive cycles using a simple 0.1 M NaOH eluent.

Quantum chemical modeling revealed strong interactions (Δ<em>E</em><small><sub>int</sub></small> = −32.5 kcal mol<small><sup>−1</sup></small>) between CFX and the chia-modified LDH surface, validating the experimental results.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles were synthesised using a low-cost coprecipitation approach, and the PANI–ZnO nanocomposite was formed <em>in situ</em> using an ultrasound, single-step oxidative polymerisation process. This approach promoted a uniform dispersion of the ZnO nanoparticles inside the polyaniline matrix, which improved the physicochemical interactions between the organic and inorganic phases. The structural, morphological, thermal, optical, and electrical properties of the nanocomposite were thoroughly investigated using ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and electrical conductivity measurements. UV-vis and FTIR analyses showed the nanocomposite's effective production and interaction with ZnO and PANI functional groups. SEM scans revealed that the ZnO nanoparticles were uniformly dispersed throughout the PANI matrix, with no agglomeration. XRD patterns demonstrated that the crystalline character of ZnO was preserved within the composite, while TGA results indicated that the nanocomposite was more thermally stable than pure PANI. Electrical conductivity experiments revealed that the addition of ZnO altered charge transport capabilities, increasing the composite's suitability for electronic applications. Furthermore, the antibacterial activity of the PANI–ZnO nanocomposite was tested against <em>Escherichia coli</em> (<em>E. coli</em>), <em>Staphylococcus aureus</em> (<em>S. aureus</em>), and <em>Salmonella typhi</em> (<em>S. typhi</em>). The nanocomposite exhibited better antibacterial activity against <em>E. coli</em> and <em>S. aureus</em> but reduced activity against <em>S. typhi</em>. The observed antibacterial behaviour was due to the synergistic interaction between the ZnO nanoparticles and the PANI matrix, which resulted in improved disruption of bacterial cell membranes.
