Abstract
Nanomaterials are being used to develop more cost-effective and high-performance water treatment systems. Nanomaterials in water research have been extensively utilized for treatment, remediation, and pollution prevention. Remediation is the process of removing toxic pollutants from water. This book entitled Nanomaterials for Water Remediation focuses on the carbon-based materials, nanoadsorbent metals, nanoparticles, cryogels, and bentonites for the remediation of various organic and inorganic pollutants from wastewater. Water pollution is mainly caused by pollutants, which lead to severe environmental and health problems. It is a well-established fact that carbon-based materials are very effective for the removal of both organic and inorganic pollutants from wastewater, and nanomaterials have better adsorption capacity, selectivity, and stability than the nanoparticles.
