The photocatalytic process with TiO2 enables adopting this emerging water treatment technique as a safe alternative for the water contaminants removals due to its minimal energy costs and high-efficiency removal. Objective: The main objective of this study is to remove the Ammonia (NH4 +), Nitrate (NO3 - ) and Phosphate (PO4 +) nutrients from the wastewater sample using the inorganic adsorption process made with Titanium Dioxide-Zeolite (TDZ) composite. Methods: The mixtures were designed using the Design-Expert software (Version 7) (DX7) by studying the mixture types of D optimal design. Two targeted samples of Ammonium Nitrate (NH4 NO3 ), and Ammonium Phosphate ((NH4 )H2 PO4 ) were diluted in one batch with the known Ammonia (NH4 +), Nitrate (NO3 - ) and Phosphate (PO4 +) concentrations. The composite of Titanium Dioxide (TiO2 )-Zeolite (TDZ) was developed using two types of adsorbent materials, i.e., natural zeolite and TiO2 and mixed with plaster cement. Results: The experiment concluded that the PO4 nutrient could be removed by the TDZ adsorbent with good adsorption, while the NH4 and NO3 nutrients are slightly satisfied in corresponding to the inorganic chemical process. Conclusion: The process is attributed to the ion exchangeability of TDZ, and it has the potential to be applied in removing the nutrients from treated wastewater.&#13;
