What are the Challenges in Nanoparticle Separation?
Despite the advancements in separation techniques, several challenges persist:
Scalability: Many separation techniques are effective at the laboratory scale but face challenges when scaled up for industrial production. Efficiency: Achieving high purity and yield simultaneously is often difficult, as some methods may lead to loss of nanoparticles or contamination. Cost: Advanced separation techniques can be expensive, limiting their widespread application. Complexity: The need for specialized equipment and expertise can make some separation techniques impractical for routine use.
