Title A name given to the resource An overview of nanomaterial technologies in the management of wastewater treatment Subject The topic of the resource Nanoadsorbents; Nanomembranes; Nanotechnology; Wastewater treatment Description An account of the resource Nanomaterials are the foundation stone of nanotechnology. It is a broad and trans disciplinary section of exploration. Its developmental commotion has been rising intensively across the world in the last few years. Applications of nanotechnology are abundant in various fields like medicines, electronics, machines, and so on. This paper describes one such application that is nanotechnology in wastewater treatment viz nanosorption, nanophotocatalysis and Nano membrane technology. The Nano compounds engaged in such treatments have been discussed here. As of now the world is in distress from the non-Availability of drinking water and even the very existence of drinking water in nature are becoming toxic due to the addition of chemicals and heavy metals by man-made and by natural happenings as well. The distinctive properties of nanomaterial such as surface area, competent to toil at required and even at low concentration and their potential have prodigious prospects to reform wastewater treatment. Carbon based nanomaterial, metal oxide nanomaterials and nanomebranes have been discussed at this juncture. There are several disputes in treating wastewater with nanomaterials such as insufficient information about the nanomaterial. Still researchers have a lack of knowledge about how these materials are travelling and the effect of nanomaterial on human health. Though the nanostructured catalytic membranes, Nano sorbents and nanophotocatalyst are the established methods to eliminate water pollutants from wastewater, they need more energy and additional investment. 2021 Elsevier Ltd.
