Abstract : Environmental pollutions have destructive effects on the ecology and health of living organisms. Removal of organic and inorganic contaminants from soil, water, and air environments is an urgent need to protect human, animal, and plant health. Cellulose nanocomposites with the ability of innovative and cost-effective designs to build efficient adsorbents have received much attention for the removal of pollutants from the environment. The biocompatible cellulose-based nano-biosorbents with renewable sources exhibited high adsorption capacity for removal of ions, dyes, drugs, pesticides contaminants, and also hazardous gases due to high surface area and many functional groups. Overall, the goal of this book chapter is to provide a preliminary database for cellulose composites and further guide the exploration and design of smart green cellulose-based nanocomposites with excellent adsorption performance for air purification, water treatment, and soil remediation.
