Hybrid Nanomaterials for Sustainable Applications: Case Studies and Applications brings together the latest advances in hybrid nanocomposites and their diverse applications for improved sustainability. The book begins by introducing hybrid nanomaterials, synthesis strategies, and approaches to production for engineering applications. Subsequent sections provide chapters on key application areas, including water purification, nanobiotechnologies, energy storage, and biomedicine, presenting approaches for sustainable application for each usage. Throughout the book, key challenges are addressed, with case studies used to support implementation and improve end applications.
This is a valuable resource for researchers and advanced students in nanotechnology, polymer science, sustainable materials, chemistry, chemical engineering, environmental science, and materials engineering, as well as industrial scientists, engineers, and R&D professionals with an interest in hybrid nanomaterials for a range of applications.
