This study focuses on the synthesis of hydroxyapatite (HA, Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2) from calcium carbonate (CaCO3)-rich quail eggshells, oyster shells, and periwinkle snail shells (Filopaludina bengalensis) through the use of the wet precipitation method. The methodology involved calcining the shell waste to convert CaCO3 to calcium oxide (CaO), undergoing ...
