Development of Novel Nanocomposite by using Biochar of bagasse and Poly(1,4-phenylene-furfural) for removal of heavy metal ions from electroplating industrial effluents

Abstract

Nanotechnology has given the opportunity to scientists for developing novel nanocomposites in the field of pharmaceutical, environment chemistry, agriculture, electronics and other field. The present communication deals with the study of Nanocomposite based Biochar of agricultural waste material like Bagasse, which combined Poly(1,4-phenylene-furfural). It was novel Nanocomposite with 100 to 140 nm size. Such Nanocomposite was used in the treatment of electroplating industrial effluents of various zone of Gujarat to remove heavy metal pollutants. The results suggest that about 80-99% pollutant heavy metals removed through adsorption successfully.
