Title: Smart composite materials for waste water remediation

Biography

Biography: Ajay Kumar Mishra

Abstract

Nanocomposites represent the new trend of research for scientists and industrial innovation. The product processes and applications are expected to contribute significantly to water and wastewater treatment. However, using nanocomposites in different products may release emerging and nanocomposites contaminants in the environment as well. Research into the environmental effects of nanotechnologies, emerging and nanocomposites has been more important nowadays. Carbon-based materials, either natural or engineered, such as carbon nanotubes, nano-diamonds and nanowires are used in biomedical applications, super-capacitors, sensors, and photovoltaics.The pollution of water sources by wastewater renders water unsafe to drink even in those places where water is plenty.Therefore, the knowledge of the treatment techniques in wastewater is highly essential. This study focuses on the status of nanocomposites in the removal of such contaminants from waste water.
