Metal Nanocomposites for Energy and Environmental Applications

Abstract

In recent years, metal nanocomposites have shown their potentials for energy and environmental applications. The unsustainable growth of the world economy leading to air, water, and soil pollution. Additionally, high energy demand for economic growth is essential. This book focused on some recent development of metal nanomaterials and nanocomposites for energy and environmental application such as pollution control in water, air, and soil pollution, carbon capture and storage (CCS), and sensing applications. The chapters have been incorporated carbon-based, metal-based and metal–organic framework-based nanomaterials and nanocomposites for emerging contaminants (pharmaceuticals and microplastics) and other traditional pollutants remediation along with energy storage, sensing of air and water polutents and CCS. We hope that the book would be of great interest to the professionals, post-graduate students involved in energy and environmental science and engineering research. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
