ABSTRACT
The lanthanide oxide nanoparticles were used for the removal of pollutants towards environmental remediation. The enhanced properties and effectiveness of nanotechnology based materials makes them particularly suitable contender in detection of pollutants. The used particles synthesized by facile and easy method with additional standard modification. The origin of pollutants, their toxicity and influential effect of respective pollutants on the environment, humans and ecological system studied in details. The prepared nanoparticles as highly efficient probes, with novel methodology utilized for detection and removal of pollutants. The easy, cost effective and efficient technologies were performed for sensing of these pollutants. This article deals with mainly detection of pollutants present in water, air and soil by using nanomaterial. Further, these nanoparticle is utilized in degradation of various types of pollutants present in the environment.
Significance of the study:
Lanthanide oxide nanoparticles show significant promise in environmental remediation, offering efficient, cost-effective methods for detecting and removing pollutants from water, air, and soil, thereby addressing ecological and human health concerns.
Summary of the study:
This review highlights the use of lanthanide oxide nanoparticles for detecting and removing environmental pollutants. These nanoparticles, synthesized through simple methods, demonstrate high efficiency and cost-effectiveness in remediating pollutants in water, air, and soil.
