Environmental Pollution Control Using Micro and Nano Bio-based Materials

Green energy and technology 2025
Mardiana Idayu Ahmad, Abdul Khalil H. P. S.

Summary

This review examines how micro and nano-scale bio-based materials -- including biochar, chitosan, cellulose, and microbial biomass -- can be engineered to remediate air, water, soil, and plastic contamination. Bio-based remediation materials offer renewable, biodegradable alternatives to synthetic adsorbents for removing microplastics and associated contaminants from environmental matrices before they enter human food and water supplies.

Environmental pollution, including air, water, soil, and plastic contamination remains one of the most pressing challenges of the twenty-first century, driven by industrialization, population growth, and unsustainable resource use. Conventional remediation approaches...
