Sustainable Development of Enhanced Luminescence Polymer-Carbon Dots Composite Film for Rapid Cd<sup>2+</sup> Removal from Wastewater

As a remedy for environmental pollution, a versatile synthetic approach has been developed to prepare polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/nitrogen-doped carbon dots (CDs) composite film (PVA-CDs) for removal of toxic cadmium ions. The CDs were first synthesized using carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) of oil palms em...
