You can do as Mehedi-PSTU stated, however it seems as though you're a little new to this, so here's some extra information:

I'll copy Mehedi-PSTU for the most part here.

$this->get->where('column_name', $equals_this_variable);
$query = $this->db->get('table_name');

This will store the query object in the variable $query. if you wanted to convert that to a usable array, you just perform to following.

$results = $query->result_array();

Or you can loop through it like this:

foreach($query->result_array() as $result){
    // Perform some task here.
}

A better or even full understanding can probably come from:
