Abstract :
one of the most promising environmental implementations of nanotechnology has been the remediation of air pollution. in this context, several nanomaterials such as nano adsorbents, nanocatalysts, nanofilters, and nanosensors have been introduced. nanomaterials can adsorb the contaminant found in the air. moreover, distinct semiconducting nanomaterials can be applied as photocatalytic approaches. despite the significant advantages of nanomaterials in air pollution remediation, current concerns regarding their toxicity need further toxicological examinations. this review aims to address the present literature on the use of nanomaterials in air pollution remediation.
