Popis: The industrial revolution has marked a strong impact on financial upgradation of several countries, and increase in the industrial establishment globally has direct impact on environment because of the release of unwanted product in air and inside the water bodies. The use of dyes has increased tremendously in various industries ranging from food, leather, textile, paper, cosmetic, pharmaceuticals, etc. The problem has emerged due to disposing of the dyes in the open environment, and mostly it is disposed along with the industrial wastes into the water bodies, which becomes harmful for animals, aquatic life and human health. This review highlights the role of the nanoparticles particularly biosynthesized nanoparticles for eliminating the dyes from the industrial wastewater. There are several methods for the synthesis of nanoparticle including physical, chemical and green synthesis of nanoparticles commonly known as biological method. Among all, the biological method is considered as the rapid, easy, eco-friendly and is being performed at mild conditions. The uses of nanoparticles for removal of dyes from water minimize the hazardous impact and thus considered to be the best approach as far as water quality and safety of environment is concerned.
