Résumé
Water supply around the globe is struggling to meet the rapidly increasing demand by the population, drastic changes in climate and degrading water quality. Even though, many large-scale methods are employed for wastewater treatment they display several negative impacts owing to the presence of pollutants. Technological innovation is required for integrated water management with different groups of nanomaterials for the removal of toxic metal ions, microbial disease, organic and inorganic solutes. The method of manipulating atoms on a nanoscale is nanotechnology. Nanomembranes are used in nanotechnology to soften water and eliminate physical, chemical and biological pollutants. The present review concentrates on various nanotechnological approaches in wastewater remedy, mechanisms involved to promote implementation, benefits and limitations in comparison with current processes, properties, barriers and commercialization research needs. Also the review identifies opportunities for further exploiting the exclusive features for green water management by following the advances in nanotechnology.
