A scientific review on the potential of biosorbents for the removal of toxic heavy metals: A green approach for wastewater treatment


Author(s): Dr. Deepa Kumari

Abstract: This review paper is helpful to develop Green biosorbents towards the remediation of toxic heavy metal ions from aqueous environment. It will also helpful to find out environmentally benign and economically viable biogenic synthetic routes for synthesis of metal nanoparticles using extract of locally available plant/animal materials. Advantage of this technology is its simplicity, low cost, no chemical used and easy to implement for the people and local community. In future, this review paper will be helpful in finding out locally available and low cost naturally occurring novel adsorbent. Precise monitoring and detection of the toxic metal ions in drinking water, foods and biological fluids are highly essential for the prevention of these undesirable effects of toxic metal ions towards both life and environment and our work may be a promising green alternative in this regard. This green technology based protocol may apply to issues like drinking water purification and wastewater management which establish acceptability of the process in sustainable development and protection of the environment.
