Abstract
The biggest problem in the current era is the pollution of water resources with inorganic and organic pollutants that are released majorly from industrial waste. It causes serious health risks to both human as well as for animal life. So for the rising need for fresh water, various water remediations have been developed. The process of adsorption is a frequently used technique in water treatment. Many efforts have been made to select the best adsorbent material that will be non-toxic, cost-effective, and bio-based. One of which is a dendritic polymer that is a highly branched polymer with 3D nano globular structure having core moiety, internal cavity and also having closely packed surface groups. Due to their unique physical and chemical properties, it is a highly efficient polymer over another substrate for the adsorption of organic and inorganic pollutants from water. In this chapter, our focus will mainly be based on applications of dendrimers, their interaction with pollutants and their future prospects in water remediation.
