Improvement of Determination, Adsorption, Degradation and Sensing Processes using Nano-Based Materials

Over the last few years, nanotechnology is increasingly developing in scientific sector, which has attracted a great deal of interest because of its abundant applications in almost all the areas. One of the most important applications of nanomaterials is their use in determination, removal, degradation and sensing area. The global environmental issues, especially the organic pollutants in industrial and household wastewater, have become a great threat to human life and environment in recent decades. An effective solution for confront with these problems is the use of method, which not only can relieve these problems, but also reduce the effluent discharge into the ecosystem. Also, detection and sensing of some compounds due to their effect on human life and environment is vital. Therefore, application of nano-based materials for determination, removal, degradation, and sensing of different organic compounds due to impressive properties of nanomaterial s in terms of high specific surface area, extraordinary mechanical flexibility, chemical stability, superior electrical and thermal conductivities, high surface free energy, sufficient reactive sites, fast dissolution, and various discontinuous properties (e.g. superparamagnetism, localized surface plasmon resonance, and quantum confinement effect) can enhance and improve the efficiency of these methods.
