Nano-Bioremediation for Water and Soil Treatment

📖 The Scoop

"This new volume, Nano-Bioremediation for Water and Soil Treatment: An Eco-Friendly Approach, addresses the global concern of environmental pollution mediated by a variety of organic, inorganic, persistent, and nonpersistent pollutants, which have a substantial detrimental impact on the structural and functional aspects of ecosystems. The book presents some important and recent nanotechnological advances that provide significant potential for decontamination of many polluted sites. It first describes the introductory background of nanoremediation along with the various types and applications in the restoration of environmental sites contaminated with a diverse range of pollutants, such as heavy metal, pesticides, salt, and dye pollutants in soil and water. It details how different types of nanomaterials are used to treat various pollutants, offering various strategies, including nano-phytoremediation, nanomaterials for inorganic pollutants, and more. This volume improves our knowledge of nanotechnology-based remediation to make it less hazardous and reusable. It provides valuable information on the decontamination of the soil and water resources"--
