Abstract
The simultaneous population explosion and the growing lack of clean water today requires disruptively innovative solutions in water remediation [...].
Highlights
The main asset of nanomaterials is their highly specific surfaces due to their size reduction, which in turn promotes enhanced catalytic activity, subsequently bringing about a more efficient degradation of dyes and organic pollutants. Nanomaterials such as oxide nanoparticles, nanocarbons, doubled layered hydroxides, and other nanosorbents offer enormous advantages in heavy metal capture and extraction from aqueous media. This Special Issue compiles eleven articles dedicated to nanomaterials for water treatment: ten research articles and one review article
Hybrid materials combining metal organic frameworks (MOF) such as MIL-88A [9] and Prussian blue combined with graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNT) [10], along with magnetic nanoparticles, i.e., magnetite (Fe3O4) and ferrite (Mn-Zn) [11], are featured
The study by Khan et al assesses the effects of ZnO nanoparticles in various contaminated aqueous media [3]
