The increasing presence of ECs in aquatic environments has drawn significant attention to the need for innovative, accessible, and sustainable solutions in wastewater treatment. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the use of agricultural residues—often discarded and undervalued—as raw materials for the development of efficient bioadsorbents. Based on a wide range of recent studies, this work presents various types of materials, such as rice husks, sugarcane bagasse, and açaí seeds, that can be transformed through thermal and chemical treatments into advanced bioadsorbents capable of removing pharmaceuticals, pesticides, dyes, and in some cases, even addressing highly persistent pollutants such as PFASs. The main objectives of this review are to (1) assess agricultural-residue-derived bioadsorbents for the removal of ECs; (2) examine physical and chemical modification techniques that enhance adsorption performance; (3) evaluate their scalability and applicability in real-world treatment systems. The review also highlights key adsorption mechanisms—such as π–π interactions, hydrogen bonding, and ion exchange—alongside the influence of parameters like pH and ionic strength. The review also explores the kinetic, isothermal, and thermodynamic aspects of the adsorption processes, highlighting both the efficiency and reusability potential of these materials. This work uniquely integrates microwave-assisted pyrolysis, magnetic functionalization, and hybrid systems, offering a roadmap for sustainable water remediation. Finally, comparative performance analyses, applications using real wastewater, regeneration strategies, and the integration of these bioadsorbents into continuous treatment systems are presented, reinforcing their promising role in advancing sustainable water remediation technologies.
