Abstract Novel CuO/Ag nanocomposites added zeolite (CAZ) were successfully fabricated, and their effectiveness as an antibacterial on S. aureus and MB removal was evaluated. EDX, XRD, and FTIR confirm the presence of the elemental compositions of CAZ. Friable CuO nanorods (10–70 nm in diameter) existed on the surface of the zeolite. Pure zeolite had a higher band gap (5.433 eV) and lower MB removal efficiency than CAZ. The adsorption method by CAZ was more effective at removing MB than photodegradation. 0.10 CAZ had the highest removal effectiveness (~ 99%) and adsorption capacity (~ 70.4 mg g−1) of MB. The inhibitory zone diameter for 0.005 CAZ against S. aureus was 20 mm, while 0.01 CAZ had a diameter of 17 mm. Azithromycin, ceftriaxone, and erythromycin antibiotics demonstrated lower or no efficacy against S. aureus than CAZ. Significant antibacterial activities and wastewater treatment were achieved by CAZ. The combination of photodegradation and adsorption enhanced pollutant removal. It will be interesting to study further the optimal molar ratio for MB removal (0.10 CAZ) in future investigations. |
