Abstract
Water resources are important ecological resources for human survival. To date, advanced water purification technology has become one of the focus of global attention due to the continuous deterioration of the environment and the serious shortage of freshwater resources. Recently, nanocellulose, as a kind of sustainable and carbon-neutral biopolymer, has not only the properties of cellulose, but also the important nature of nanomaterials, including large specific surface area, tailorable surface chemistry, excellent mechanical flexibility, biodegradability, and environmental compatibility. Herein, this review covers several methods of extraction and preparation of nanocellulose and the functional modification strategies. Subsequently, we systematically review the application and latest research progress of nanocellulose-based functional material towards water treatment, from micro/nanoparticles filtration, dyes/organics adsorption/degradation, heavy metal ions adsorption/detection and oil-water separation to seawater desalination. Furthermore, scalable and low-cost nanocellulose synthesis strategies are discussed. Finally, the challenges and opportunities of nanocellulose water purification substrate in industrial application and emerging directions are briefly discussed. This review is expected to provide new insights for the application of advanced functional materials based on nanocellulose in water treatment and environmental remediation, and promote rapid cross-disciplinary development.
期刊介绍:
Carbohydrate Polymers stands as a prominent journal in the glycoscience field, dedicated to exploring and harnessing the potential of polysaccharides with applications spanning bioenergy, bioplastics, biomaterials, biorefining, chemistry, drug delivery, food, health, nanotechnology, packaging, paper, pharmaceuticals, medicine, oil recovery, textiles, tissue engineering, wood, and various aspects of glycoscience.
The journal emphasizes the central role of well-characterized carbohydrate polymers, highlighting their significance as the primary focus rather than a peripheral topic. Each paper must prominently feature at least one named carbohydrate polymer, evident in both citation and title, with a commitment to innovative research that advances scientific knowledge.
