Nanotechnology in Water Treatment

Applications of nanotechnology essentially deal with particles that are one to many nanometers broad in size. This particle size offers some fascinating surface and chemical properties that make it suitable for inventive uses. Engineering science proponents assert that there is no question that research in this area could offer solutions to some of the most urgent problems that the world is currently facing, such as ensuring that developing populations have access to safe drinking water while also addressing issues with health, energy, and business.
