REVIEW ON COMPARATIVE STUDY FOR REMOVAL OF ORGANIC POLLUTANTS USING DIFFERENT FORMS OF GRAPHENE OXIDE

Abstract

- Textile wastewater due to the presence of dyes effluents has become a severe environmental problem worldwide and has reached on alarming stage. Therefore, from past few decades, different practices have been used by researchers and scientist to eliminate these effluents. Among them, adsorption is one most effective method due to its low cost, ease availability and handling. Recently, graphene oxide and its composites are gaining a lot of attention for removing not only dye effluents but other contaminants also. The present review reveals the importance of graphene oxide and their composites to eliminate dyes affluents from waterbodies along with classification of dyes and different adsorption techniques.
