The active development of water purification functional materials based on multicomponent spinel ferrites makes it necessary to search for new efficient methods of obtaining initial nanostructured powders. In this study, a two-stage method for the synthesis of perspective pollutant absorption agents based on NixZn1−xFe2O4 (x = 0, 0.3, 0.7, 1.0) spinel ferrites are proposed and implemented. The approach is based on the synthesis of the initial powder using the solution combustion method and its subsequent thermal treatment in the air. It was found that synthesized samples are single-phase Ni-Zn ferrites with an average crystallite size of 41.4 to 35.7 nm and a degree of crystallinity of ~95–96%. The analysis of antimicrobial activity against four diverse test-cultures: Escherichia coli ATCC 11229 (non-spore-forming gram-negative), Bacillus cereus ATCC 10702 (spore-forming gram-positive), Staphylococcus citreus NCTC 9379 (non-spore-forming gram-positive), and Candida tropicalis ATCC 750 (yeast) showed that almost all of the synthesized powders exhibit an advanced ability to inhibit the growth of the microorganisms mentioned above. The compositions obtained can be a perspective basis for both natural and wastewater purificators with magnetic separation ability and can find biotechnological and biomedical applications as promising antimicrobial materials.
