Overview

Evaluation shows Ag-TiO2 nanocomposite achieved 99.99% bacterial removal in borne water systems, indicating strong antimicrobial potential.

Key Points

  • Ag-TiO2 nanocomposite achieved 99.99% removal of bacterial contamination in borehole water systems, demonstrating high efficacy.
  • Characterization techniques indicated spongy, slit-shaped Ag-TiO2 nanoparticles with a high surface area of 285.35 cm²/g.
  • Antimicrobial testing revealed significant inhibition zones against several bacterial genera, confirming the effectiveness of the nanoparticles.
  • This treatment method for disinfection highlights potential improvements for water quality in university hostel environments.
