Title A name given to the resource Nanomaterials-Based Chemical Sensing Subject The topic of the resource Functionalization; Heavy metal ion; Nanocarbon; Nanocarbon-based materials; Nanotechnology; Sensing strategies; Water contamination Description An account of the resource Nanotechnology is an achievement in the modern period because of its adaptable properties as per its size alterations. Nanomaterials with their size ranging from 1 to 100nm hold incredible novel properties and functionalities because of their molecular arrangements in nano-scale. Nanotechnologies add to pretty much every field of science, including material science, materials chemistry, physics, biology, software and computational engineering and so on. Lately, nanotechnology has been applied to different fields with promising outcomes, particularly in the field of detecting and remediation of toxicity levels, imperilling the ecological solidness just as it does to human wellbeing. One of the principal research interests using nanomaterials is detecting poisonous heavy metal ions. Carbon-based nanomaterials, which are remarkable in view of their toxic-free nature, high surface area and biocompatibility, are valuable for ecological treatments. Heavy metal pollution of water resources is a major issue that poses danger to health and wellbeing. Carbon-based nanomaterials have incredible potential for the detection as well as treatment of heavy metals from water sources in light of their large surface area, nano-scale and accessibility towards various functionalities as they are simpler to be chemically altered and hence reused. Apart from the conventional gas sensors based on SnO2, Fe2O3, In2O3 etc., gas sensors based on nanocarbons materials like carbon nanotubes (CNTs), nanosheets of graphene, carbon nano-fibres etc. exhibit high efficacy when it comes to gas-sensing strategy. Likewise, nanocarbon with hybrids of noble metals or semiconducting oxides can lead to a better performance considering gas-sensing applications. Here in this review, we describe the progress of carbon-based nanomaterials in toxicity detection and remediation. In addition to that, recent trends in nanomaterials-based sensing revealed the advancement of gas sensors based on nanocarbons. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
