Nanomaterials and Nanocomposites for Environmental Remediation (Energy, Environment, and Sustainability)

This monograph focuses on recent development of nanomaterials and nanocomposites for pollution measurement and their control in water, air, and soil. The contents incorporate carbon-based, metal-based, and metal-organic framework based nanomaterials and nanocomposites for emerging contaminants (pharmaceuticals and personal care products) degradation, disinfection, and other traditional pollutants degradation and removal. The book also offers updated literature for researchers and academicians working in the field of environmental remediation by nanomaterials. Readers will learn about different metal and non-metal based nanoparticles for environmental remediation. It will be a useful guide for professionals, and post-graduate students involved in material science & engineering, chemical engineering and environmental nanotechnology research. ^ Nanomaterials and Nanocomposites for Environmental Remediation.- Carbon Nanomaterials: A prominent emerging materials towards environmental pollution study and control.- Titanium Oxide Composites with Graphene and Laser-Induced Graphene for the Environmental Applications.- Metal and Carbon-based Nanomaterials for the Water Disinfection.- Application of Metal and Metal Oxide Nanoparticles as Potential Antibacterial Agents.- Perovskite BiFeO3 Nanostructure Photocatalysts for Degradation of Organic Pollutants.- Photocatalysis for the Removal of Environmental Contaminants.- Technological advancement in photocatalytic degradation of dyes using metal doped biopolymers composites- Present and future perspectives.
