Fundamentals of Nano-Textile Science provides a detailed overview of advanced nano-textiles methods, techniques, and treatments along with explanations of a wide range of applications. This book places emphasis on nanotechnology-based textile enhancements that provide high durability, better affinity, and more functionality in textile material and that overcomes the limitation of conventional processes in the textile industry.

The first section of the book deals with the production method of nano-textile fibers. It elaborates how nano-techniques are used for producing textile fiber and discusses various pretreatment processes of textile materials using such methods as nano-scouring, nanobiophotoscouring, nano-bleaching, nano-softening, and nano-surface activation.

The second section discusses the wide range of nanofinishing applications to make textile materials antimicrobial, flame retardant, UV-protected, etc. It also discusses different techniques and treatments applied on the surface of the finished product using plasma technology or layer-by-layer deposition techniques. This section also covers nano-based textile applications such as for sports clothing, military textiles, high-performance clothing, or smart wearable high-tech nano-textiles.

In the last section, the book concludes with an overview of nanotechnological advancements being used for the management of textile effluents and for removing dyes from wastewater in textile processing, focusing on the health and safety perspective of nano-textiles.

The book is written by highly experienced authors in this area and provides an immensely valuable resource for scientific researchers, academics, professionals, engineers, technologists and innovators working on designing and manufacturing textile materials. The volume will be an important resource for those who are looking for innovative production technologies or the latest nanotechnology developments in the design and manufacturing of nano-textile materials.

This contributed volume addresses several environmental problems using nanoparticles/nanomaterials for renewable energy and biofuel production. It presents nanomaterials as catalysts that can enable better selectivity, yield, and quality in renewable energy and biofuel production.

The rapid expansion of industries and human population has resulted in a significant increase in the generation of waste and environmental pollution, posing a significant threat to the environment and human health. People are looking for safer and more eco-friendly fuels to meet energy demand and preserve the world for future generations. Renewable energy and biofuels are alternative techniques that reduce fossil fuel consumption. The advancement in the field of nanotechnology has led to the development of nanocomposites/nanomaterials, which are composed of nanoscale particles and polymers. Their application in the environment has shown great potential in addressing environmental issues such as pollution control and waste management. Nanocomposites are advanced materials with unique properties, such as improved mechanical strength, thermal stability, and flame resistance, making them attractive for a wide range of applications, including environmental applications. Nanomaterials show great potential for sustainable biofuel production with commercial feasibility. Nanotechnology-based various conversion routes effectively convert waste biomass into value-added biofuels, such as syngas, biodiesel, and HVO. This book discusses the green synthesis of nanocomposites/nanomaterials for biofuel production and renewable energy. Additionally, it covers techno-economic analysis of bioremediation using green-synthesized nanoparticles/nanomaterials.

This book will be helpful for researchers, engineers, and scientists working in the areas of environmental biotechnology, materials science, nanotechnology, environmental science, and engineering.
