Adsorption process is suitable to the advanced treatment of tetracycline antibiotics (TCs; including tetracycline (TTC), oxytetracycline (OTC), and chlortetracycline (CTC)) in poultry wastewater. In this research, Mn oxide-doped Cu oxide (MODCO) was synthesized and used for the removal of TTC, OTC, and CTC. According to the XRD and SEM analysis results, MODCO has an amorphous crystal structure and is formed by the aggregation of nano-sized particles with a uniform distribution of Cu and Mn elements. In addition, MODCO has a BET surface area of 67.7 m²/g and a pHIEP value of 7.8. The results of batch experiments illustrated that the reaction rates for the removal of three TCs were in the order of OTC > CTC > TTC. In addition, the theoretical maximum amounts of TTC, OTC, and CTC adsorbed on MODCO were determined to be 2.90 mmol/g, 4.15 mmol/g, and 2.20 mmol/g via the Langmuir model, respectively. The optimal removal performances of TCs were achieved in the pH range of 6~9, and the coexistence of anions posed an unnoticeable effect on the removal efficiencies. The spectroscopic analysis results demonstrated that the removal mechanism of TCs was mainly attributed to surface complexation. Furthermore, a part of TCs may be decomposed by Mn oxides during the removal process according to the UV spectrogram results. Overall, MODCO has exhibited a great potential for the removal of TCs from aqueous solution.
