Abstract

With the global increase in urbanization and industrialization, the threat to natural ecosystems and biodiversity in the form of pollution is imminent. Universally, one of the major categories of pollutants that we face today is the presence of heavy metals in the environment. Mercury, in particular, is a highly toxic heavy metal capable of showcasing bioaccumulation, persistence, and biomagnification capabilities. It is also responsible for numerous health hazards in human beings and animals. To curb the problem of mercury poisoning in living organisms, several conventional remediation techniques have been tried and tested for the removal of mercury. Some of these conventional methods are not that accurate in remediating mercury, so using nano adsorbents can show a promising future. Nano-sized adsorbent materials have been widely studied in remediation procedures. Numerous studies in nanotechnology have revealed the effectiveness of nano adsorbents composed of polymers, zeolite, carbon, metals, or even those with magnetic properties in remediation or pollutant removal procedures. The effectiveness of these adsorbents can be applied to remove mercury from different environments based on their functionality. These nano adsorbents are sustainable, reusable, efficient, and cost-effective when it comes to conventional mercury remediation techniques. The major challenges in the use of nano adsorbents may involve issues in large-scale production and application, toxicity, or even pollution if not handled appropriately. This chapter describes the synthesis, applications, challenges, and future scope of various nano adsorbents in the context of mercury remediation or removal techniques from different environments.
