This book delves into the cutting-edge application of nanotechnology for the detection, removal, and degradation of emerging contaminants in drinking water. It covers a wide range of nanomaterials detailing their synthesis, functionalization, and deployment in water treatment processes. It presents case studies and pilot projects that demonstrate the scalability of these technologies, providing valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities associated with integrating nanomaterials into existing water infrastructure.

Features:
• Discusses the concept of emerging contaminants in drinking water, such as pharmaceuticals, personal care products, and microplastics.
• Provides an overview of traditional water treatment methods and their limitations in removing these contaminants.
• Examine nanomaterials as a promising solution for capturing and degrading contaminants at the molecular level in drinking water.
• Establishes strong connections between theoretical mechanisms and nanotechnology applications.
• Presents the current state of nanomaterial-based water treatment technologies in real-world applications, including industrial and municipal water treatment plants.

This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in environmental and chemical engineering, and water treatment.

Sesan Abiodun Aransiola is a Lecturer at the Department of Microbiology, University of Abuja, Nigeria. He has demonstrated his research expert in the production of vermicasts from vermicoposting of organic wastes to assist plants in the remediation of polluted soil with heavy metals. His expertise spans environmental health, phytoremediation, vermicomposting, marine resources and bioremediation of pollutants in the soil. Yakubu Adekunle Alli is a distinguished postdoctoral researcher at Nelson Mandela University, specializing in the design of multifunctional nanomaterials for CO₂ conversion, N₂ reduction, renewable energy, and antimicrobial drug development. His work integrates photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, environmental remediation, and advanced additive manufacturing to develop sustainable solutions for energy, climate, and health challenges. Kondakindi Venkateswar Reddy has been working as a faculty in Microbiology and Biotechnology for past15 years, teaching undergraduate and post graduate students. His forte is Industrial microbiology, Biotechnology and Environmental management. Currently, he is working as an Asst. Professor at Center for Biotechnology, University College of Engineering Science and Technology Hyderabad, Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Hyderabad, Telangana, India. Naga Raju Maddela is working as a Full Professor at the Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud, Universidad Técnica de Manabí, Portoviejo, Ecuador.
