Abstract
The development of lowcost adsorbents is triggered often by not utilizing the costly starting material that pave the path for synthesizing cost comparative adsorbents for purpose of sequestration of toxic pollutants from water. Clay minerals are alternatives that are low-cost to activated charcoal due to their abundance presence, excellent textural properties, high specific surface area, strong chemical, and mechanical stability Pollution, in recent years has become an increasingly serious problem, leading to health issues in human and deteriorating environmental condition. Various remediation technologies are introduced so far, but adsorption regarded as important industrial technique for separation and purification of effluent media. This review paper showcases the importance of montmorillonite nanocomposites for the remediation of toxic contaminants from water. The preferred method of remediation is adsorption. It also emphasizes the recent development in the field of montmorillonite nanocomposites in sequestering different types of dyes and various heavy metals from water. Hence, this brief review authorises the various montmorillonite adsorbents conceivability towards water treatment.
