Description:
MXenes as Emerging Modalities for Environmental and Sensing Applications: Theories, Design and Approach explores how MXene-based hybrid nanostructures are used to remedy environmental pollutants. The book also explains how they assist in sensing and degradation/removal applications to protect the ecological system, both environmental and aquatic life, from various types of toxic pollutants released from industrial sectors. This book focuses on the design, fabrication, and application of MXene-based nanostructures and their integration with the biotechnological processes for monitoring and treatment of pollutants in environmental matrices and sensing applications.
It aims to increase scientific and technological awareness of the urgency required to tackle life-threatening pollutants arising from various industrial and biotechnological sectors of the modern world.Brief description:
