Abstract

The supply of safe drinking and clean water is becoming increasingly challenging proposition throughout the world. The deployment of environmentally sustainable nanomaterials with unique advantages namely high efficiency and selectivity, earth-abundance, recyclability, low-cost of production processes, and stability, has been a priority although several important challenges and constraints still remained unresolved. Carbon nanomaterials namely activated carbon, multi-walled- and single-walled carbon nanotubes, have been developed and applied as adsorbents for wastewater treatment and purification; graphene and graphene oxide-based nanomaterials as well as carbon and graphene quantum dots-derived nanomaterials have shown significant promise for water and wastewater treatment and purification, especially, for industrial- and pharmaceutical-laden wastes. This review encompasses advanced carbonaceous nanomaterials and methodologies that are deployed for the elimination of contaminants and ionic metals in aqueous media, and as novel nanosorbents for wastewater, drinking and ground water treatment. Additionally, recent trends and challenges pertaining to the sustainable carbon and graphene quantum dots-derived nanomaterials and their appliances for treating and purifying wastewater are highlighted. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd
