Despite the fact that nanotechnology has been present for a few
decades, there is a big gap between how nanotechnology is perceived
and what nanotechnology can truly offer in all sectors of water.
The question to be answered is 'what more can we expect from
nanotechnology' in the water field? The rational nano-design starts
with well-defined problem definitions, necessitates
interdisciplinary approaches, involves 'think-outside-the-box', and
represents the future growth point of environmental nanotechnology.
However, it is still largely new to the educated public and even
scientists and engineers in water fields. Therefore, it is the
purpose of this book to promote the concept of rational nano-design
and to demonstrate its creativity, innovation, and excitement. This
book presents a series of carefully selected rationally designed
nano- materials/devices/surfaces, which represent drastically
different, ground-breaking, and eye-opening approaches to
conventional problems to embody the concept of nano-design and to
illustrate its remarkable potential to change the face of the
research in water industry in the future. Each of the book
contributors is world-renowned expert in the burgeoning field of
rational nano-design for applications. Rational Design of
Next-generation Nanomaterials and Nanodevices for Water
Applications is intended for undergraduates, graduates, scientists
and professionals in the fields of environmental science, material
science, chemistry, and chemistry engineering. It provides coherent
and good material for teaching, research, and professional
reference. Contents: Introduction to rational nano-design for water
applications; Rational design of smart materials/surfaces with
switchable oil wettability for sustainable oil-spill cleanup;
Rational design of three-dimensional macroscale porous electrodes
for bioelectrochemical systems; Design of (photo)electrochemical
active membranes as next-generation filtration devices;
Hierarchical materials as a design concept for multifunctional
membranes; Rational design of functional nanoporous materials to
confine water pollutant in controlled nano-space; A next-generation
forward osmosis draw solution design; Rational design of magnetic
permanently-confined micelle arrays (Mag-PCMAs) materials for
sustainable water and soil remediation; Rational design of an
all-in-one lab-on-chip device for direct seawater desalination;
Design of micro-sized microbial fuel cells as miniature energy
harvesters Author: Peng Wang, King Abdullah University of Science
