“…Recently, magnesium oxide (MgO) NPs have received much attention from researchers because they are eco‐friendly, economically competitive, and industrially important NPs [247] . The physiochemical behaviours of MgO NPs such as possessing excellent refractive index, [248] low electrical conductivity, [249] superior corrosion resistance, [250] high thermal conductivity, [251] mechanical strength, flame and dielectric resistance, outstanding optical transparency and stability, have made them an ideal material for various applications in for both industrial and environmental remediations [252] . For instance, MgO NPs were able to remove organic dyes such as methyl orange, methylene blue, congo red, methyl red and reactive black dye effectively because of the large active specific surface area, high specificity and reactivity [253] .…”
