Water is the most vital substance in every aspect of life, and its
contamination because of the activity of mankind poses a big global
challenge. Addressing this issue for drinking purposes and
environmental protection is the current big issue. Many research
groups worldwide have been working on effective treatment technologies
based on nanomaterials during the last two decades. Water and
wastewater treatment by nanomaterial-based technologies has become an
aid in finding possible solutions for contaminated wastewater released
from various water sources. Nanoscale materials can be seen to take on
unique and unpredictable properties that make them more robust,
flexible, lighter, and faster, and the particular material used for
the development of devices and systems. Features: • This book
presents the use of different advanced nanomaterials to treat water
and wastewater. • The uses of carbon-based nanomaterials,
metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), and biopolymer-supported
nanomaterials for water treatment are explored, focusing on new-
generation materials. • Water purification methods such as the
disinfection of water using green synthesized nanomaterials,
adsorption through nanomaterial-based adsorbents, and nanofiltration
techniques are discussed. We emphasize efficient water treatment
methods and the use of new emerging nanomaterials in the toxicological
study of nanomaterials. Nanomaterials provide high-performance and
cost-effective treatment for water treatment. Various nanomaterials
and electrochemical methods are used to stop, remove, or neutralize
water harmful organic and inorganic contaminants in water through
adsorption, filtration, and disinfection.
