Moreover, the growth of this bentonite market is attributed to the rising environmental concerns about wastewater treatment, primarily due to the presence of radioactive and toxic chemicals. Bentonite provides a less expensive, safer, more effective, and cost-effective method of wastewater treatment prior to disposal into a water stream. Clay mineral is an effective organic matter, toxic metal, and nutrient removal agent. When compared to raw bentonite, modified bentonite showed higher adsorption. In comparison to chemical-based methods, it provides an environmentally friendly and cost-effective method for waste-water treatment. According to the United Nations, 56%of household wastewater flows were safely treated in 2020 across the globe.
