Biocomposites consist of composite materials up of multiple ingredients that are mixed to make a new product that outperforms the individual constituent materials. They constitute biomass‐based products that are biodegradable, high‐performing, and environmentally friendly and can be utilized for wastewater treatment. Biopolymers such as cellulose, chitosan, starch, chitin, alginate, and others continue to be the most important part of biocomposites. Biopolymers’ advantages include their non‐toxicity, availability, economics, and environmentally friendly nature (Zhang et al., 2013).
