What is the Role of Nanotechnology in Groundwater Treatment?
Nanotechnology offers innovative solutions for the treatment of groundwater by utilizing materials and devices on a nanometer scale. One of the primary applications is the use of nanoparticles to remove contaminants from groundwater. These nanoparticles, due to their high surface area to volume ratio, exhibit unique physical and chemical properties that make them highly effective in adsorption, catalysis, and degradation of pollutants.
