Non-conventional low-cost adsorbents for dye removal: A review

TL;DR: It is evident from a literature survey of about 210 recent papers that low-cost sorbents have demonstrated outstanding removal capabilities for certain dyes, and chitosan might be a promising adsorbent for environmental and purification purposes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of low-cost adsorbents for dye removal – A review

TL;DR: From a comprehensive literature review, it was found that some LCAs, in addition to having wide availability, have fast kinetics and appreciable adsorption capacities too.

‘Green’ synthesis of metals and their oxide nanoparticles: applications for environmental remediation

TL;DR: This review summarized the fundamental processes and mechanisms of “green” synthesis approaches, especially for metal and metal oxide nanoparticles using natural extracts and explored the role of biological components, essential phytochemicals (e.g., flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids, amides, and aldehydes) as reducing agents and solvent systems.
