Nanomaterials significance; contaminants degradation for environmental applications

Abstract

Abstract Nanotechnology provides an innovative platform that is inexpensive, reasonable, having least chances of secondary contamination, economical, and an effective method to concurrently eradicate numerous impurities from contaminated wastewater. Presently, different researches have been conducted exhibiting versatile multifunctional nanoparticles (NPs) that concurrently confiscate several impurities existing in the water. Nanotechnology helps in eliminating impurities from water through the rapid, low-cost method. Pollutants such as 2,4-dichlorophenol (death-causing contaminant as it quickly gets absorbed via the skin), or industrial dyes including methyl violet (MV) or methyl orange (MO) causing water contamination were also concisely explained. In this mini-review, nanomaterials were critically investigated, and the practicability and effectiveness of the elimination of contaminations were debated. The analysis shows that a few of these processes can be commercialized in treating diverse toxins via multifunctional nanotechnology innovations. Hence, nanotechnology shows a promising and environmental friendly method to resolve the restrictions of current and conventional contaminated water treatment. We can progress the technology, without influencing and affecting the natural earth environment conditions.
