Photocatalytic removal of aldrin and dieldrin using graphene oxide and TiO2‐doped CuFe2O4

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 100, Issue 1, Page 138-154, January 2025.
Abstract BACKGROUND Conventional treatment processes and existing photocatalysts have proven insufficient in efficiently removing aldrin and dieldrin. Consequently, this study aimed to investigate the removal of aldrin and dieldrin from surface water using a titanium dioxide/graphene oxide/copper ferrite (TiO₂/GO/CuFe₂O₄) nanocomposite.
