A mini-review on bioderived carbon and its nanocomposites for removal of organic pollutants from wastewater

초록

Biomass derived carbon nanocomposites are cost effective, emerging and promising technique for synthesis of surface enhanced nanocomposites. Biochar based nanocomposites are used for removal of organic pollutants, heavy metals, colorants, pharmaceutical and personal care products, etc. Carbon nanocomposites with higher surface area and pore size have edge over other adsorbents. This mini review extensively provides an overview of biomass derived nanocomposites and its efficiency on removal of organic pollutants from aqueous environment. Futuristic research is needed in simultaneous removal of pollutants from industrial wastewater, which helps in achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs). Real time usage of carbon nanocomposites in wastewater treatment has to be addressed in economical way.
