This book delves into the cutting-edge application of nanotechnology for the detection, removal, and degradation of emerging contaminants in drinking water. It covers a wide range of nanomaterials detailing their synthesis, functionalization, and deployment in water treatment processes. It presents case studies and pilot projects that demonstrate the scalability of these technologies, providing valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities associated with integrating nanomaterials into existing water infrastructure.Features:Discusses the concept of emerging contaminants in drinking water, such as pharmaceuticals, personal care products, and microplasticsProvides an overview of traditional water treatment methods and their limitations in removing these contaminantsExamines nanomaterials as a promising solution for capturing and degrading contaminants at the molecular level in drinking waterEstablishes strong connections between theoretical mechanisms and nanotechnology applicationsPresents the current state of nanomaterial-based water treatment technologies in real-world applications, including industrial and municipal water treatment plantsThis book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in environmental and chemical engineering, and water treatment.
