Description Dyes are frequently let out into the environment along with wastewater
sans necessary treatment. Fast, cost-effective, scientific and suitable elimination of
dyes from wastewaters has been an important problem for researchers. Adsorption
technique is a robust, well studied, widely employed and promising water treatment
method. In the last decade, nanocarbon based adsorbents have gained attention in
water treatment. These adsorbents are usually produced from low cost substrate and
are found to be highly efficient than other adsorbents. Recently, graphene based
nanomaterials are widely used as adsorbents to sorb various toxic organic contaminants
from aqueous solutions. It showed high efficiency due to its chemical
stability, structure, surface area and surface functional groups. So graphene are
called as ‘miracle material’. Recently nanographene composites are proven to be a
likely adsorbent for eliminating contaminants from the industrial effluents. In this
chapter, we have presented briefly the synthesis of graphene and its other variants
viz., GO, rGO and nano graphene composites. This chapter presents a small
introduction to adsorption principles and adsorption isotherms. It explains the
synthesis and use of nano graphene materials for the remediation of dyes. It also
consolidates the recent literature available for dye adsorption using graphene
materials and its mechanism.
