Selected Nanotechnology Applications in Industrial Waste Water Treatment: A Review
Abstract
Nanotechnology is considered
the future of the world in most physics and chemical solutions that cannot be
applied in many scale level. This review aimed to highlight the different uses
of nanotechnology in industrial waste water treatment system because it is very
important issue to protect the environment from the different liquid industrial
pollutants. Nanoparticles is defined by some as nanomaterials, and these
materials has unusual properties not present in ordinary materials. Nano,
typically employed as a prefix, is defined as one billionth of a quantity or term
that is represented mathematically 10 9-. Generally, refers to the
processes that produces and use matter at the nanometre level. From the review
Nano-technology can be used to minimize the cost, accelerate the process and
improve the efficiency of industrial waste water treatment. Nanoparticles found
to be one of the best solution in the field of industrial waste water
treatment.
