36^th World Nano Conference

Environmental Nanotechnology & Remediation

Environmental nanotechnology uses nanomaterials to detect, remove, and neutralize pollutants, supporting sustainable ecosystems and industrial practices. Engineered nanostructures such as metal oxides, carbon-based materials, nanosorbents, and catalytic nanoparticles can degrade contaminants, purify water, treat wastewater, and capture toxic gases with exceptional efficiency. Nanosensors provide real-time monitoring of air, soil, and water quality, enabling rapid response to environmental hazards. Nanotechnology enhances renewable energy systems, waste reduction, and climate resilience by enabling cleaner manufacturing and resource recovery. Advanced remediation strategies utilize photocatalysis, nanofiltration, nano-enabled bioremediation, and hybrid treatment systems to restore contaminated environments. As global sustainability demands increase, environmental nanotechnology offers powerful solutions for industrial pollution, agricultural runoff, emerging contaminants, and microplastic mitigation. Continued research ensures safe, scalable, and eco-friendly deployment of nanomaterials to protect natural resources.
