Environmental pollutants pose a serious threat to ecological balance, human health, and the global climate. Early detection and effective remediation of these pollutants are critical to prevent further damage. Over the years, both natural and synthetic materials have been explored and applied for pollutant detection and remediation. This book, Biomaterials for Environmental Applications: Detection and Remediation, presents current techniques, critically evaluates their efficiency, and highlights the future prospects of various biomaterials in addressing environmental pollution.
Biomaterials have gained increasing importance in tackling environmental challenges due to their unique advantages such as biocompatibility, specificity, ease of fabrication, biodegradability, cost-effectiveness, and eco-friendly nature. In recent years, a wide range of biomaterials has been developed for potential applications including dye removal, heavy metal detection, and use as pharmaceutical excipients. Moreover, the integration of biomaterials with other advanced materials has paved the way for ultrasensitive and highly selective pollutant detection and remediation strategies. This book also explores the advancements in biomolecules employed in biosensors for pollutant detection. It covers both the fundamental concepts and the latest developments in bioremediation using biomolecules such as chitosan, alginate, pectin, enzymes, and biochar. Additionally, the synthesis and applications of advanced nanomaterials derived from biological sources such as bacteria, fungi, algae, and plants are discussed in detail.
The book is designed to serve a wide audience including researchers, engineers, technicians, and students from diverse fields such as biochemistry, microbiology, biotechnology, and environmental sciences. Each chapter provides insights into advanced conversion techniques for synthesizing biomaterials, application strategies for pollutant detection and remediation, associated challenges, as well as their economic and environmental impacts.
