Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) has the characteristics of high heavy metal ion content and low pH. This study aimed to synthesize the CaO/Fe3O4 composite for the adsorption of iron and manganese ions from acid mine drainage. CaO was synthesized from the shells of green mussels (Perna viridis). The CaO/Fe3O4 composites were characterized using XRD, BET surface area, SEM-EDS, and VSM. The functional groups of the composite before and after adsorption were analyzed using FTIR. The adsorption of Fe(II), Fe(III), and Mn(II) ions was carried out with the batch method to determine the effect of pH, contact time, and initial concentration of metal ions. The CaO/Fe3O4 composite has magnetic properties, as indicated by the saturation magnetization value of 65.49 emu/g. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were used to describe the adsorption isotherm of the composite for Fe(II), Fe(III), and Mn(II) ions. Investigations were also conducted on adsorption kinetics, including pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order, as well as adsorption thermodynamics comprising free energy, enthalpy, and entropy. Pseudo-first-order and Langmuir isotherms are suitable to describe the adsorption of Fe(II), Fe(III), and Mn(II) ions with adsorption capacities of Fe(III) > Fe(II) > Mn(II). Moreover, the adsorption of all ions using the composite occurred spontaneously. The removal effectiveness for Fe and Mn ions from AMD using CaO/Fe3O4 composite, reached 90.41 and 97.59%, respectively, in volume 100 mL AMD, composite mass 0.4 g, and a contact time of 60 minutes.
