N2 - Hazardous contaminating impurities/toxins, such as poisonous metal particles and colors/dyes, are a significant reason for the toxicity of water bodies. These contaminations make an unfriendly impact on sea organisms and immobilize the compounds in plant life. Subsequently, this issue should be moderated as a disturbing natural danger leading to different unsafe sicknesses in humans. Moreover, several waterborne pathogenic microorganisms likewise cause irresistible infections. Numerous techniques are reportedly established to eliminate these toxins and undesirable microorganisms. Adsorptive treatment and/or exclusion of water toxins and microbial sanitization through different nanocellulose (NC)-graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite (NGON) materials (adsorbents) are introduced in this chapter. As per available literature, these adsorbent materials have shown extraordinary outcomes for the adsorptive exclusion of water contaminants such as poisonous metal ions and colors/dyes along with the removal of aquatic germs, insecticides, etc. Besides, they have numerous other necessities, including ease of preparation, cheap, and eco-friendly, as green composite blends are handily worked, energy-economical, and fit for multifaceted uses. This chapter also focuses on discussing the technologies embraced to fabricate the aforementioned adsorbents, their performance-based response with regards to adsorption capacity (Q). Our article also presents an ephemeral summary of adsorption working principles like isotherms, adsorption affecting parameters, the kinetics, along with the thermodynamics of the adsorption phenomenon. Furthermore, it reconnoiters the current applications, issues of consideration, related to these NGON adsorbents along with future perspectives.
