520 |a The presence of heavy metals and/or harmful bacteria in drinking water represents significant risks to human health. This study aimed to develop a low-cost water treatment technology using synthesized nanocomposites with metal nanoparticles supported on activated carbon (AC) for bacteria and heavy metal removal. In addition, the performance of the developed nanomaterials was compared with that of commercial materials - carbon fibers of three different typologies. The chemical and textural properties of all tested materials were characterized. To simulate a technology to be applied in a water outlet point, removal tests were carried out in a continuous system using suspensions of Escherichia coli and/or Staphylococcus aureus, wherein the contact time with the two phases was minimal (1 min). The obtained results revealed that iron and copper oxides supported on AC with a calcination treatment (CuFeO/AC-C) was the nanocomposite with the best performance, achieving a 6 log reduction for both bacteria in the same suspension up to 9 h operation. A mix of bacteria and heavy metals, simulating a real water, was treated with CuFeO/AC-C obtaining a 6 log reduction of bacteria, a Pb2+ removal >99.9% and Cd2+ removal between 97 and 98% over 180 passage times
