Low-Cost Nanoparticles for Remediation of Arsenic Contaminated Water and Soils

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Arsenic Toxicity: Challenges and Solutions

Abstract

Arsenic is considered a threat to human and ecosystem due to its serious impacts on soil and water. Nanotechnology is a promising approach that offers significant opportunities to develop green, sturdy, and economic approaches for remediation of arsenic contaminated water and soil. Because nanomaterials possess high specific surface area and reactivity, its use in water treatment applications has shown great success in overcoming the restrictions of conventional treatment technology. The current chapter deals with the green, low-cost, and easily accessible nanosorbents that are used for arsenic removal from contaminated water such as green cellulose nanocrystals, iron oxides/hydroxide nanoparticles, green magnetic nanoparticles, biochar magnetic nanocomposites, and nanoparticles derived from industrial and agricultural wastes. Adsorption mechanisms responsible for arsenic removal by waste-based adsorbents have been discussed. The green synthesis of nanosorbents using natural and abundant bio-materials as well as surface modification and functionalization to overcome constraints associated with sorbents derived from waste materials is also discussed with respect to its potential for water remediation.
