Nanoceramic Based Composites for Removal of Dyes from Aqueous Stream

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Advanced Oxidation Processes in Dye-Containing Wastewater

Abstract

Water is an essential necessity for all living beings, but the world is suffering from a major crisis of clean and safe drinking water. Water pollution has become one of the most aggravated problems throughout the world threatening the sustainability of human race and other life forms due to the rapid pace of civilization and industrialization. A long history exists of discharge of hazardous dyes into the water bodies by selfish human activities since the Industrial Revolution, but no effort has been completely successful in curbing the activities that result in the degradation of our environment. These pollutants are harmful, carcinogenic and have adverse health effects to all forms of life. Thus, remarkable efforts have been geared up to obtain clean water by exploiting science and technology. Among the potential methods for the treatment of wastewater, adsorption by solid materials is worth mentionable. Its simplicity in operation and satisfactory efficiency in the elimination of contaminants make it a good candidate for adsorption. Ceramic based nanomaterials have attracted scientists and have been widely utilized in remediating dye laden waste water because of their sustainable nature, magnetically recyclability, stability and maximum pollutant binding capacities. This chapter provides an understanding of the different treatment methods and outlines the possible utility of nanoceramic based composite materials in the treatment of waste water contaminated with dyes. Summary of the global scenario and the recent developments of nanoceramics as adsorbents have been reviewed. It is expected that this book chapter provides a scope to the future researchers and opens new scientific avenues in the areas of dye removal.
