Abstract

Mesoporous material derived from bio based carbonaceous polysaccharides have recently attracted a lot if attention and have led to several innovations. A large number of environmentally friendly biobased adsorbents have been successfully prepared by the conversion of starch and other polysaccharide containing biowastes to carbonaceous mesoporous composite material. Owing to their great potential in remedial and bio applications, various methods of mesoporous material have been designed and modifications have been proposed for their controlled synthesis from various natural precursors. They have gradually emerged as efficient multifunctional tools in biosciences and have been widely explored for a broad range of applications. Since bioderived material display unique properties for their selective adsorption capacity, they have been potentially utilized in absorbing the contaminants of waste water which contains heavy metals and organic dyes along with other toxins. This article focuses on a concise overview of mesoporous material which are designed and derived from carbonaceous precursors and find outstanding applications in absorbing heavy metals and organic dyes present in waste water.
