A Review of Removal of Pollutants from Water/Wastewater Using Different Types of Nanomaterials

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the possible applications of the nanoparticles/fibers for the removal of pollutants from water/wastewater and made recommendations based on the current practices of nanotechnology applications in water industry for a stand-alone water purification unit for removing all types of contaminants from wastewater.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photocatalysis and Bandgap Engineering Using ZnO Nanocomposites

TL;DR: In this article, the UV-Vis absorption spectrum of nanocomposite and photodegradation reported by the same material and how photode degradation depends upon the factors described above.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantum confinement effect in ZnO nanoparticles synthesized by co-precipitate method

TL;DR: In this article, a very narrow particle size distribution of the ZnO nanoparticles was achieved through careful control of the synthesis conditions, which indicated that increasing the temperature from 60 to 65°C caused a subsequent increase in particle size from ∼4 to 12nm.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibacterial, Structural and Optical Characterization of Mechano-Chemically Prepared ZnO Nanoparticles

TL;DR: Scanning electron microscopy and survival assay indicated that most probably ZnO nanoparticles cause changes in cellular morphology which eventually causes bacterial cell death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Silver disinfection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and E. coli in rooftop harvested rainwater for potable purposes.

TL;DR: The kinetics of this study suggest that higher inactivation and long term residual effect towards both MOs can be achieved with the application of silver at 0.08 mg/l or higher under safe limit.
