Study on TiO2–MnO2 composites for the simultaneous removal of antibiotics, ammonia nitrogen, and heavy metals from water: Adsorption behaviors and mechanisms

Key Points

• The composites effectively remove antibiotics and heavy metals from water.
• Removals include over 85% for antibiotics and heavy metals, enhancing water quality.
• Assessment using adsorption isotherm models reveals the mechanism for contaminant uptake.
• Potential implications for improving water treatment processes, addressing environmental concerns.
