Abstract

The utilization of several sequence of green nanocomposites, by different researchers via different preparation techniques, consider as an effective hygienic source of materials toward clean environment and to reduce different environmental pollution issues. The green nanocomposites are highlighted as a result of their elevated effectiveness due to their large surface area or the towering ratio of area to volume, which made them attractive materials for wide applications, especially in environmental issues. The current chapter will give attention to different pathways to attain clean environment via starting to distance the world from dependence on harmful polymeric materials as well as getting rid of heavy metals from water through introducing of green nanocomposite materials. The accumulation problem of the non-dissolving harmful polymeric material wastes responsible for the emission of dioxin, which is a substance that has a major role in the abundance of cancerous diseases because of its ability to settle in the fatty tissues of humans and animals, can be recycled through burning it via using environmentally friendly nanocomposite materials. In addition, we will summarize the recent developments in the use of different nanocomposites to purify the environment and to remove the heavy metals from water.
