Nanomaterials for Water Treatment and Remediation

This book explores recent developments in the use of advanced nanomaterials (ANMs) for water treatment and remediation. In-depth reaction mechanisms in water treatment technologies including adsorption, catalysis, and membrane filtration for water purification using ANMs are discussed in detail. It includes investigation of fabrication processes of nanostructured materials and fundamental aspects of surface at the nanoscale. The book also covers removal of water-borne pathogens and microbes through a photochemical approach. This text is aimed at researchers and industry professionals in chemical, materials, and environmental engineering, as well as related fields--
