Abstract
:: Nanoparticles are widely used in manufacturing, daily life applications, and other fields because of their unique properties. However, the nanoparticles that end up in surface water are difficult to break down naturally and cause environmental hazards that cannot be ignored. In this paper, the migration mode of nanoparticles in the environment was proposed, and the factors affecting the removal efficiency of nanoparticles mainly include ionic strength, natural organic matter, surface properties, etc. The common methods for removing nanoparticles mainly include coagulation precipitation methods, activated sludge methods, membrane filtration methods, and adsorption methods. In addition, new technologies such as photothermal removal and electro-adsorption have also been applied to remove nanoparticles in water. In future research, combining the advantages of different removal methods and using different methods interactively to remove nanoparticles in water could become a new research direction.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
