Abstract

In this chapter, the authors discuss nanomaterials for environmental application as promising technology of water treatment, air purification, and remediation. Water contamination remains a critical issue in many developing nations, including African countries. Traditionally, chlorine has been employed for water treatment; however, its association with cancer risks has raised significant health concerns. In response to these challenges, nanomaterials have emerged as innovative solutions for environmental remediation due to their unique physicochemical properties. This chapter explores the recent advancements in the application of nanomaterials for addressing environmental pollution. In this chapter, the author discussion attempts to provides a comprehensive overview of the nanomaterial use in water treatment and air purification, highlighting their effectiveness in overcoming traditional treatment limitations and offering sustainable alternatives for improving environmental pollution.
