The aim of this study is an investigation to remove the diclofenac fromsynthesis wastewater by using of pillared clay that made from Iraqi clay (ALAnbar clay) as adsorbent by using both batch and packed bed reactor to studykinetic model. The experimental work in batch reactor using different parameter(diclofenac, pillared clay and pH) in four beakers for 3 hours in jar testinstrument , from the result show pH is the important factor effect on theadsorption process and also show diclofenac removal decreased with increasingpH values, but in constant all parameter effect of the initial concentration ofdiclofenac in the adsorption process show removal of diclofenac increasing withincreasing the amount of adsorbent dosage up to 1000 mg. additional, the resultof experimental work in packed bed reactor with different variables such as(initial concentration, flow rate and bed depth) for 6 hours, show the bestcondition of bed depth is 2 cm, initial concentration 625 mg /l and flow rate 25h/l
