“…Nanoparticles have a high surfaceto-volume ratio and enhanced catalytic binding sites which account for the highly efficient removal of heavy metals from wastewater [8]. Adsorption is an efficient method used for treating wastewater because of its cost-effectiveness and flexibility [9,10]. Activated carbon is the most widely used adsorbent.…”

The column performance of silica‐coated, amino‐functionalized, superparamagnetic nanoparticles co‐integrated with Cynodon dactylon and Murraya koenigii plant extracts for the removal of CuII ions was evaluated. The co‐integrated nanoparticles were used as sorbent materials in fixed‐bed column studies, and the effects of inlet concentration, adsorbent bed depth, and flow rate were analyzed. Breakthrough time was calculated for various CuII inlet concentrations, depths of the adsorbent bed, and volumetric flow rates. Models such as Thomas, Yoon‐Nelson, and the bed depth model were evaluated to determine the experimental fit. The maximum breakthrough time for CuII ions of 1200 min was attained for a CuII inlet concentration of 100 mg L–1, sorbent bed depth of 3 cm, and volumetric flow rate of 1 mL min–1.

Heavy metal toxicity is an alarming challenge, since these metals exhibit negative impacts on ecosystem and human health. Carbon-based materials hold the promising, alternative, and effective material to eliminate pollutants in contaminated soils as it acts as a heavy metal adsorbent in soil remediation. Interestingly, carbon-based materials integrated with magnetic particles possess an enhanced absorption capacity in the heavy metal removal and it also removes the other organic contaminants. Moreover, new approaches are developed by using carbon-based materials integrated with magnetic particles for their long-term, cost effective, and sustainable prospects to environmental pollution. This chapter focused on the role and conspicuousness of carbon-based materials integrated with magnetic particles taking into account in heavy metal removal. Moreover, this chapter ultimately grasped the highlights of contemporary advances in these materials as adsorbents. Carbon-based materials eventually reduce the heavy metal toxicity besides being as a soil rejuvenators.
