This review examines the potential of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) in removing toxic heavy metal ions from wastewater, a pressing environmental challenge due to industrialization. MNPs, such as magnetite nanorods, exhibit high adsorption capacities, fast kinetics, and easy magnetic retrieval, offering a promising alternative to conventional methods like ion exchange and chemical precipitation. The paper discusses MNPs’ synthesis, characterization, and adsorption properties, highlighting their adaptability, cost-effectiveness, and reusability as a sustainable solution for heavy metal removal in water treatment.
