ChemistrySelect, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 10(6)

Published: Feb. 1, 2025

Abstract The global shortage of fresh water is a critical issue, especially in regions with limited rainfall. Developing reliable and wastewater treatment technologies urgent. Among the available methods, adsorption stands out as highly effective, straightforward, cost‐efficient approach. It avoids use additional chemicals reduces risk contaminating source undesirable by‐products. Chitosan (CS)‐based hydrogels have gained attention for their excellent capacities pollutants water. These materials are also known bioavailability, biocompatibility, biodegradability, cost‐effectiveness, environmental friendliness, making them promising candidates treatment. This comprehensive review explores recent advancements CS‐based various applications, including pollutant removal, oil‐water separation, seawater desalination, atmospheric condensation. highlights benefits this material treatment, providing broader understanding potential research community. focuses on synthesis modification techniques these hydrogels, such cross‐linking, grafting, ion imprinting, which significantly enhance performance mechanical stability. Additionally, challenges faced by practical applications discussed, along solutions. paper concludes forecasting future directions field, offering valuable insights researchers. Overall, provides overview current state art into effective utilization emphasizing to address pollution challenges.

Published: Sept. 14, 2022

Photocatalysis, a unique process that occurs in the presence of light radiation, can potentially be utilized to control environmental pollution, and improve health society. Photocatalytic removal, or disinfection, chemical biological species has been known for decades; however, its extension indoor environments public places always challenging. Many efforts have made this direction last two–three years since COVID-19 pandemic started. Furthermore, development efficient photocatalytic nanomaterials through modifications their photoactivity under ambient conditions fighting with such situation is high research priority. In recent years, several metal oxides-based nano-photocatalysts designed work efficiently outdoor disinfection species. The present review briefly discusses advances two three viral bacterial disinfections. Moreover, emphasis given tailoring disinfecting surfaces, air, water stop viral/bacterial infection environment. role also highlighted future applicability controlling pandemics.
