This book provides a comprehensive overview of the potential use of
graphene-based materials in two important societal areas: medicine
and the environment. It discusses how new graphene-based materials
can be creatively used for biological purposes, for example as
delivery vehicles for diagnostics or therapeutics, ultrasensitive
sensors, smart responsive substrates for artificial-tissue design
and biomarkers. Moreover, it presents new insights into their use
as sorbent or photocatalytic materials for environmental
decontamination in water and gas-phase desalination membranes and
as sensors for contaminant monitoring, giving relevance to the
current discussions on the possible toxicological effects of
graphene-based materials.
This book report the advances in the synthesis of new nanomaterials
for the remediation of natural waters, groundwaters, and
wastewaters. The authors describe synthetic routes for the assembly
of different nanomaterials for the removal of contaminants by
adsorption, catalytic degradation, and antibacterial activity. The
hazardous effects of nanomaterials in aquatic ecosystems are
discussed. This book presents the trends in the development of
advanced technologies available in the market based on
nanomaterials for more efficient water remediation. The authors
also discuss sustainable management of water resources according to
the new technologies developed and the improved efficiency of
remediation processes.
This brief explores polysaccharides, the most abundant family of
naturally occurring polymers, and explains how they have gained
considerable attention in recent decades as a source of innovative
bio-based materials. The authors present a range of material
including an extensive array of polysaccharide hybrid nanomaterials
with distinct applications. The most recent knowledge regarding
polysaccharide-based hybrid nanomaterials with metal and metal
oxide nanoparticles (NPs), carbon nanotubes and graphene is
presented as well as the main polysaccharides, namely cellulose,
chitin and chitosan, starch and their most relevant derivatives.
The book features a description of important production
methodologies, properties, and applications of these types of
hybrids.
