Abstract

The drinking water crisis has shaped into a major threat for the human race nowadays due to heavy and unwanted wastage of water for different purposes. To overcome such issues, the treatment of wastewater through several techniques for removing unwanted pollutants has proved to be beneficial. Adsorption being an efficient technique utilizes a physical and chemical process to remove harmful metal ions, anions, and chemical pollutants from the wastewater. Various synthetic and natural adsorbents were utilized by researchers for studying the adsorption process. Zeolite nowadays has been explored as a very eminent material for carrying out adsorption studies for wastewater treatment. This chapter discusses the preparation techniques of zeolite by both conventional and advanced techniques. The utilization of various industrial waste sources for preparing zeolite has been mainly focused on in this chapter. Moreover, the synthesis of various advanced zeolite-based composites is described along with their specific utilization toward environmental remediation applications. This chapter also points out the recent advancements and future scope of advanced zeolite composite materials which can prove to be more efficient in remediation-based applications.
