Polymeric adsorbents are artificially synthesized adsorbents wherein the subunits are covalently bonded together. These polymers exhibit a wide range of properties such as better porosity, high durability, and larger surface area when compared to conventional adsorbents. Owing to their excellent physicochemical properties and adsorption characteristics, various types of polymer adsorbents are widely used in several end-use industries such as pharmaceuticals, food & beverages, textile, and others to treat phenolic wastes. Depending upon the operational requirement, the properties such as mechanical strength, adsorption capacity, selectivity can be varied.Â
The growing use of polymer adsorbents, particularly in the pharmaceutical and food & beverage industry is expected to drive the global market growth during the forecast period. This is largely attributed to the growing demand for polymeric adsorbents for the removal of antibiotics, proteins, and other compounds from organic aqueous solutions in pharmaceutical applications. In addition, the increasing use of polymeric adsorbents in separation and purification processes to produce high-quality products and simultaneously discharge non-toxic industrial effluents is likely to fuel the demand for the product in the coming years.
The extraction processes carried out by employing synthetic polymeric adsorbents enables less solvent utilization and thus is a safe and cost-effective technique which is expected to drive demand for polymeric adsorbents globally.
Furthermore, the increased use of polymeric adsorbents in textile industries coupled with innovative advancements in the production of hybrid polymeric adsorbents suitable for both organic and inorganic aqueous solutions are further creating lucrative opportunities for the players operating in polymeric adsorbents market.
However, the high cost of polymeric adsorbents is likely to hamper the growth of the global market. Also, the conventional substitutes such as activated carbon and others that exhibit comparable performance characteristics are expected to pose a limitation to the polymeric adsorbents market

In this investigation, Mentha leaf extracts were employed as reducing agents in the manufacture of Zn nanoparticles. The produced Zn nanoparticles with around 36 nm were found to have high purity and crystallinity. Nanoparticles can be employed as herbicide adsorbents since they have vast adsorption sites and a big surface area. Nanoparticles supported in membranes are less likely to be oxidized or hydrolyzed quickly. This research revealed a simple and effective approach for removing pesticides from water. It has been reported that after repeated usage of the membrane for herbicide removal, the active areas on the Zn nanoparticle surface become saturated, rendering the membranes useless. For re-deploying the membranes, methods for de-adsorption of herbicides must be investigated.
