Abstract
Major changes of the environment are caused by the presence of pollutants in air, soil, and wastewaters. From these, a major attention is accorded to the industrial wastewaters, because can contain simultaneous different types of pollutants such as heavy metals, anions, dyes, phenols, pesticides, drugs, etc. For wastewater treatment, consecrated methods such as adsorption, photocatalysis, membrane separation, etc. can be used, adsorption being considered one of the most favorable techniques. In the last years, an increase in interest was observed in nanoadsorbent materials with low cost. Ecofriendly nano-adsorbents include the materials obtained from industrial wastes, agricultural sources, and by-products, recognized as low-cost sources. These nano-adsorbents, obtained by “green technologies,” have adsorption capacities, comparable to the expensive adsorbents (modified chitosan, activated carbon, complex inorganic composites, etc.).
