For the last twenty more years, the zero valent iron (ZVI) nanoparticles are being investigated for their application in the water pollution remediation. The search for “green” strategies leads to the advancement in the plant-mediated synthesis of ZVI nanoparticles. In this perspective, this article aims to review the synthesis strategies and stabilization methods for ZVI nanoparticles prepared from

In this study, simultaneous pre and post-ozonation processes combined biological attached growth reactor were used in order to investigate the removal of COD, ammonium and total coliforms from real municipal wastewater. The biological process was carried out in a fixed bed aerobic bioreactor with an aeration rate of 6 L/min and hydraulic retention time of 5 h. The ozonation process was performed simultaneously

Adsorption is considered as one of the effective techniques for the removal of heavy metals. In this direction, nanomaterials offer a huge surface area to enhance the adsorption capacity. Surface properties of the nanomaterials regulate the interfacial interactions among adsorbent, solvent and adsorbate. Here surface modifications play an important role to tune these interfacial interactions. Self-assembled
