RESUMEN
Bentonite-based composites have been widely utilized in the removal of various pollutants due to low cost, environmentally friendly, ease-to-operate, whereas the recent advances concerning the application of bentonite-based composites in environmental remediation were not available. Herein, the modification (i.e., acid/alkaline washing, thermal treatment and hybrids) of bentonite was firstly reviewed; Then the recent advances of adsorption of environmental concomitants (e.g., organic (dyes, microplastics, phenolic and other organics) and inorganic pollutants (heavy metals, radionuclides and other inorganic pollutants)) on various bentonite-based composites were summarized in details. Meanwhile, the effect of environmental factors and interaction mechanism between bentonite-based composites and contaminants were also investigated. Finally, the conclusions and prospective of bentonite-based composites in the environmental remediation were proposed. It is demonstrated that various bentonite-based composites exhibited the high adsorption/degradation capacity towards environmental pollutants under the specific conditions. The interaction mechanism involved the mineralization, physical/chemical adsorption, co-precipitation and complexation. This review highlights the effect of different functionalization of bentonite-based composites on their adsorption capacity and interaction mechanism, which is expected to be helpful to environmental scientists for applying bentonite-based composites into practical environmental remediation.

The manganese ferrite (MnFe2O4)-based nanoparticles showed a substantial potential to remediate the various pollutants in environmental application due to low cost, simple magnetic separation and high removal capacity. Herein, the functionalization of various MnFe2O4-based nanoparticles was briefly summarized; Then the recent advances concerning the removal of pollutants (i.e., organics, heavy metals and antibacterial activity) on different MnFe2O4-based nanoparticles were reviewed in details. The reactivity of MnFe2O4-based nanoparticles was significantly influenced by environmental factors. It is demonstrated that interaction mechanism of various pollutants on magnetic MnFe2O4-based nanoparticles included degradation, adsorption, coordination, redox and precipitation. Finally, the current problems and future perspective of MnFe2O4-based nanoparticles were proposed. The highlight of this review is to compare the removal performance of MnFe2O4-based nanoparticles with the different hybrids. This review is crucial for the application of MnFe2O4-based nanoparticles in the environmental remediation.
