The increase in green mussel shell waste from consumption is a problem for waste disposal, while green mussel shells also constitute a high calcium carbonate, up to 90-95%. Therefore, transforming green mussel shell waste into bio-calcium carbonate (BiO-CaCO3) is an excellent solution for zero waste and economic applications. Bio-CaCO3 is used in several applications, such as bioceramics, coated paper, cosmeceutical products, oil-absorbent, and reducing commercial materials by mixing bio-CaCO3. This research aims to revolutionize the green mussel shell waste into bio-CaCO3 using a straightforward, economical, and green technique. The size of bio-CaCO3 was determined to be suitable for each application using the ball mill machine. The results show that the bio-CaCO3 crystals vary from 1 to 5 micrometers in size, approximately. Bio-CaCO3 can be utilized as an oil-absorbent application by surface modification with carboxylic acids.
