Description: Nanotechnology - Based Sensors for Detection of Environmental Pollution discusses the use of nanotechnology to generate sensors capable of performing efficient detection of different types of environmental pollutants. Sections explore environmental pollution as a threat to life on Earth the main contaminants (inorganic organic or pathogens) and the risk they represent to living beings. Others are dedicated to nanotechnology allowing pollutants detection a brief history of nanotechnology - based sensors different types of nanotechnology - based sensor (optical electrochemical and magnetic) nanotechnology - based sensors design and fabrication nano biosensors and more. Additional sections focus on important specific pollutants (pesticides heavy metal dyes toxic gas pharmaceutical waste petroleum hydrocarbons and pathogenic microbes) and their detection by nanotechnology - based sensors and important nanomaterials in nanotechnology - based sensors exploring carbon - based and non - carbon - based material in nanoscale (graphene carbon nanotubes quantum dots magnetic nanomaterials non - magnetic nanoparticles) and also point - of - care sensors and functionalization to generate optimized nanotechnology - based sensors to pollutants detection.
