Reduced Graphene Oxide-based Solutions for Water Purification: Advances in Sustainable Nanocomposites
Abstract
Environmental pollution, particularly water contamination, is a major hazard to world ecosystems and public health. With increased concerns about the inefficiencies and ecological risks connected with traditional cleanup procedures, there is a renewed emphasis on sustainable alternatives. This work provides a complete overview of reduced Graphene Oxide (rGO)-based nanocomposites, including synthesis, rGO characteristics, pollutant removal processes, environmental benefits, and obstacles. rGO-based nanocomposites have gained popularity due to their distinct physical, chemical, and adsorption capabilities, making them appropriate for the removal of a wide range of contaminants, including heavy metals, organic dyes, and medicines. Their ability to provide long-term, scalable, and environmentally friendly remedial solutions is highlighted.
