Abstract

The success of any sustainable growth represents an advancement of novel approaches and new methodologies for managing any ecological concern. Magnetic nanoparticles have gained recent interest owing to their versatile properties such as controlled size, shape, quantum and surface effect, etc, and outcome in wastewater treatment and pollutant removal. Developments have progressed in synthesizing magnetic nanoparticles with the required size, shape and morphology, surface and chemical composition. Magnetic nanoparticles are target specific and inexpensive compared to conventional treatment techniques. This review insight into the synthesis of magnetic nanoparticles using physical, chemical, and biological methods. The biological method of synthesizing magnetic nanoparticles serves to be cost-effective, green process, and eco-friendly for various applications. Characterization studies of synthesized nanoparticles using TEM, XRD, SARS, SANS, DLS, etc are discussed in detail. Magnetic nanoparticles are widely utilized in recent research for removing organic and inorganic contaminants. It was found that the magnetic nanosorption approach together with redox reactions proves to be an effective and flexible mechanism for the removal of pollutants from waste effluents.
