This chapter describes applications of various nano-biosorbents as a positive approach for the removal of different types of pollutants from wastewater and the need for time. The nano-biosorbents are a substitute advanced material to remove toxic contaminants having a small size, high surface area, stability, green engineered nanoscale (zero-valent metals) ions. Other properties of nanobisorbents have completely different optical, electrical and magnetic properties, greater reactivity with neighboring (polluting) atoms, faster chemical processes, and less waste generation post-treatment. Furthermore, some studies have been carried out to investigate the use of nano-adsorbent materials in wastewater remediation. Nano-adsorbent materials consider next-generation adsorbents and have several practices and perform very well in environmental purification and control of pollutants from water and wastewater.187-226engChitosanImmobilizationNano-biosorbentsNanocellulose compositesCapítulo de livro10.1016/B978-0-323-90912-9.00009-52-s2.0-85128310014
