Abstract

Nanomaterials are an emerging class of compounds with potential to advance technology for wastewater treatment. There are many toxic substances in industrial wastewater that are dangerous to the aquatic ecosystem and public health. These pollutants require the development of novel techniques to remove them from the environment. Iron oxide nanoparticles are being studied and develop as new technology to address the problem of environmental pollution due to their unique properties and effectiveness against different kind of pollutants. A variety of modified iron oxide nanoparticles have been developed through extensive research that mitigates the shortcomings of aggregation or oxidation and enhances their efficiency as novel remediator against environmental pollutants. In this review, we present synthetic approaches used for the preparation of iron oxide nanoparticles and their corresponding nanocomposites, along with the processes in which the materials are used as adsorbent/photocatalysts for environmental remediation. Applications explored includes adsorption of dyes, photocatalytic degradation of dyes, and adsorption of heavy metal ions. The use of iron oxides nanocomposite in real wastewater samples and recyclability of adsorbents and photocatalysts were also explored.
