Nanotechnology has the capability to revolutionize pollution control through the development of more efficient and effective methods for detecting, capturing, and neutralizing pollutants. Nanomaterials like carbon nanotubes, nanofibers, and metal-oxide nanoparticles can adsorb contaminants from air and water, offering a promising solution for reducing pollution levels. Additionally, nanocatalysts can be used to accelerate chemical reactions that break down pollutants into harmless substances.
