What Role Does Nanotechnology Play in the Removal of Organic Pollutants?
Nanotechnology is pivotal in the remediation of organic pollutants. Nanocatalysts can accelerate the degradation of harmful chemicals, converting them into less toxic substances. Nanofiltration membranes can selectively remove organic pollutants from contaminated water. Additionally, nanoparticles like iron oxide and titanium dioxide are used in photocatalytic processes to break down organic pollutants using light energy.
