Nanomaterials for Environmental and Agricultural Sectors

Part of the book series: Smart Nanomaterials Technology ((SNT))

Abstract

The carbon elements less than 100 nm are known as carbon nanoparticles. The family of carbon nanomaterials, which includes graphene (atomically flat carbon), graphene oxide, carbon nanoparticles, and carbon nanotubes, is expanding quickly. Many electrical, optical, and biological applications employ carbon nanoparticles. The processes of carbonization, heating, activation, and grinding are used to produce carbon nanoparticles. Its synthesis and activation procedure for various medicinal and biological uses and basic features are explained in this chapter. Such as the manufacturing of carbon-based nanomaterials, wet and dry synthesis, covalent and noncovalent binding, and there are some naturally occurring carbon nanotubes in the environment, and their potential as heavy metal absorbents is promising. This study states that there are several techniques for creating carbon nanoparticles, which exhibit significant benefits as environmental heavy metal adsorbents.

Shivani Tyagi and Pranchal Rajput are equally contributed.
