Nanotechnology applications for wastewater research have a significant impact in maintaining the long-term quality, availability, and viability of water supplies. Nanoclays in Water and Wastewater Treatment: Technical, Economic and Scale-up Aspects presents a detailed review of cutting-edge research on the use of these materials in water applications including treatment, remediation, sensing, and pollution prevention. Various nanoparticles and nanomaterials that could be used in water remediation (zeolites, carbon nanotubes, self-assembled monolayer on mesoporous supports, biopolymers, single-enzyme nanoparticles, zero-valent iron nanoparticles, bimetallic iron nanoparticles, and nanoscale semiconductor photocatalysts) are discussed. The book also covers waterborne infectious diseases as well as waterborne pathogens, microbes, and toxicity.The book will be a valuable reference resource for academic researchers and professional engineers who are working on the development of supported catalysts for wastewater treatment applications.

Dr. Meththika Vithanage is a Professor in the Department of Geochemistry at the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland, Denmark. Her work centers on quantifying concentrations and reaction kinetics of key and emerging pollutants, including microplastics, and Persistent, Mobile and Toxic contaminants. She advances understanding of their environmental fate and transport and develops remediation strategies using innovative geo-, bio-, and nanomaterials.Dr. Dimitrios A. Giannakoudakis obtained his PhD at the City University of New York, New York City, United States (February 2017). Nowadays, he serves as an assistant professor at the University Marie Curie Sklodowska (UMCS), Lublin, Poland. His research is focused on the development of composite porous nanomaterials for (photo)(sono)(piezo)catalytic technologies for biomass valorization and (micro)plastics upcycling to green chemicals, as well as for air and water purification, linking physicochemical properties to performance and involved mechanisms. He coauthored more than 140 articles, 1 monograph, 7 edited books, and 17 book chapters with over 7000 citations. Since 2021, he has been included in the Top 2% Most Influential Scientists worldwide (Stanford list, Elsevier).Prof. Jagpreet Singh is Assistant Director at the Research & Incubation Center, Rayat Bahra University, India. His research focuses on the valorization of waste into advanced functional nanomaterials for environmental remediation applications, promoting sustainability, circular economy principles, and alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). He has published numerous articles on high impact journals, and was recognized among the World’s Top 2% Scientists by Stanford University and Elsevier for four consecutive years (2021–2024).
