Copper ferrite immobilized on chitosan: A suitable photocatalyst for the removal of ciprofloxacin, ampicillin and erythromycin in aqueous solution

Copper ferrite (CuFe2O4) was immobilized on chitosan to produce CuFe2O4@Chitosan for the removal of ciprofloxacin (CIP), ampicillin (AMP), and erythromycin (ERY) in water. Characterization of CuFe2O4@Chitosan by X-ray diffraction revealed the crystallite size of 18.12 nm. The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller...
