This review explores the potential of nanomaterial-enhanced hybrid disinfection methods as effective strategies for addressing growing challenge multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in wastewater treatment. By integrating nanocomposites nanomaterials, natural biocides such terpenes, ultrasonication, this approach significantly enhances efficiency compared to conventional methods. The highlights mechanisms through which nanomaterials generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) under blue LED irradiation, effectively disrupting MDR while improving efficacy synergistic interactions. Additionally, examines critical operational parameters-such light intensity, catalyst dosage, ultrasonication power-that optimize treatment outcomes ensure reusability other without significant loss photocatalytic activity. Furthermore, method shows promise degrading ARGs, thereby both microbial genetic pollution. Overall, underscores need innovative solutions that are efficient, sustainable, scalable, contributing global fight against antimicrobial resistance.
