Biomass-based Smart Nanomaterials: Transforming Biomass Wastes to Advanced Materials for Environmental Remediation covers various aspects of biomass-derived smart nanomaterials, from properties and preparation methods to environmental applications and lifecycle assessment. The book starts with an introduction to the fundamentals of materials’ preparation and innovative developments in the synthesis of a wide range of nanomaterials, highlighting sustainable production trends and green synthesis methods. The following chapters focus on their environmental applications, including water treatment, sustainable environmental remediation, and the utilization of smart nanomaterials for wastewater treatment and freshwater generation. The book also discusses lifecycle assessments, techno-economic analyses, and future research directions, offering insights into the scalability, market size, and impact of biomass-based smart nanomaterials. This reference is a valuable resource for researchers, academics, and professionals working in the fields of nanotechnology, materials science, environmental science, and waste management who are interested in the transformation of biomass wastes into advanced materials for environmental remediation.

Dr. O.O. Ayeleru is a SEnior Research Fellow at the Centre for Nanoengineering and Advanced Material, Department of Engineering Metallurgy, University of Johannesburg, South Africa. He obtained his B.Eng. degree in Chemical Engineering from the Federal University of Technology, Yola, Adamawa State, Nigeria, and MTech. and PhD degrees from the University of Johannesburg, Johannesburg, South Africa. His field of research is in the Advanced Materials Synthesis, Municipal Solid Waste Management, Soft-Computing Applications, Fruit and Vegetable Research, Water and Wastewater Treatment, Electrical Energy Consumption and Renewable Energy Research. He was part of the team who developed a Feasibility Study Report on Biomethane Generation from Municipal Organic Solid Waste for the City of Johannesburg in 2016 and is a co-innovator of a patented innovation (filed in South Africa). Dr. H.U. Modekwe is a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Johannesburg, South Africa. She earned her Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the same institution. Her primary research interests lie in environmental, chemical, material synthesis, and processing engineering, focusing on nanotechnology and nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes, graphene, graphene oxide, and their composites. Her research also encompasses plastics and solid waste management and valorization, water and wastewater treatment, membrane technology, and heterogeneous catalysis. Dr. Modekwe applies chemical synthesis principles to develop strategies and processes for treating and valorizing waste materials into valuable products. She works to strike a balance between fundamental research and industrial applications to offer sustainable solutions to environmental challenges in South Africa, Africa, and globally. Sadanand Pandey is a Professor in the School of Bioengineering and Food Technology at Shoolini University. He brings over 12 years of expertise to the field of Materials Science, specialising in organic-inorganic nanocomposites with applications in water purification, nanosensors, energy, and biomedicine. He completed his PhD at the University of Allahabad and then became a UGC-Kothari fellow at the prestigious Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. He continued his academic journey with international experiences, including a research professorship at Yeungnam University in South Korea from 2019 to 2023. He also had a stint at the University of Johannesburg, South Africa, from 2014 to 2018. Throughout his career, he received prestigious fellowships, including the DST/NRF Innovation Fellowship in South Africa, Dr Kothari's Postdoctoral Fellowship in India, and JRF and SRF fellowships from DST, India. He contributed significantly to research projects funded by the National Research Foundation (NRF) and the Korea Institute of Marine Science & Technology Promotion (KIMST) in South Korea. His primary research areas include polymer science, nanotechnology, and nanocomposites, composite materials, and surface modification. His recent work has explored hydrogels for applications in nutrient recovery, controlled drug delivery, water purification, and biomedicine. He has also delved into the development of photocatalysts with implications for nanotechnology, energy research, and environmental science. Prof. Pandey has authored more than 250 publications in peer-reviewed journals and international conferences. His scholarly contributions have garnered more than 9000 citations on Google Scholar in the past five years. Additionally, he is a guest editor for various scientific journals, including Materials Letters, Frontier in Chemistry, Biosensors, Chemosensors, Water, Materials, Molecules, and Polymers. He is an active member of scientific communities, including The Korean Society of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry, the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), the American Chemical Society, the Indian Science Congress Association (ISC), and the Materials Research Society of India (MRSI). He has received the Young Scientist award at the Indian Science Congress in India and has been recognised among the top 2% of scientists worldwide for year (2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 & 2023) in subject-wise analyses conducted by Stanford University. He has also authored more than 20 book chapters on advanced materials and technology for esteemed publishers in the USA. He has presented at numerous domestic and international conferences.
