This work describes the synthesis of CaCu₃Ti₄O₁₂ (CCTO) by a facile conventional oxide mixing method. The prepared CCTO particles were further modified with anatase TiO₂ NPs (~55 nm size) and zeolite supported TiO₂ nanoparticles (NPs) (~58 nm size) for the photocatalytic removal of MB and Cd²⁺ from the aqueous media under compact fluorescent light. Both nascent and modified CCTO composite materials were characterized using X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron micrograph /energy dispersion X‐ray, BET, UV–VIS‐DRS, and pH of the point of zero charge analyses. These composite materials revealed with remarkable affinity toward MB and Cd²⁺, whereby the maximum photocatalytic degradation and adsorption capacity reached to 73 and 77 mg/g, respectively. The cations removal efficiencies of the prepared composite materials were found increased in the binary solutions of MB and Cd²⁺ ions resulting in enhanced degradation and adsorption capacity, q_e, up to 132, and 137 mg/g, respectively. The reusability tests revealed that the efficiencies of prepared composites gradually decreased upon reuse.
