Nanomaterials (NMs) that are created with zinc oxide are very valuable for a wide variety of applications. There is a present interest in ZnO nanoparticles in a wide range of industries. This interest may be attributed to the fact that ZnO NPs have many important features. It will be necessary for ZnO NPs to possess certain qualities in order for them to rapidly find uses in industry and for these applications to have an effect on the expansion of the economy. A large surface area, a large bandgap, photocatalytic property, biosensing, bioimaging, and other qualities are included in this list. In this article, the extraordinary characteristics of ZnO NPs, as well as their novel applications in industrial settings and the challenges that come along with their utilization, will be discussed.
CNT-based composites can exhibit exceptional physical, chemical, and mechanical properties, and their tiny addition enhances activity significantly. These captured the eyes of food industrial sector due to its promising characteristics. Biosensing, gas sensing, antimicrobial properties, antibody immobilization, are key factor here. CNTs of various diameters, lengths, and functionalization processes were utilized to show antibacterial effect. By this effect these can be used in food packaging. By sensing ethylene, CNTs can be used in food ripening. As CNTs in pure water improves heat transmission, these can be used in controlled pasteurization which is needed for food safety. CNTs can sense cholesterol, vitamin B6 and others food ingredients. So, these can be utilized in improvement of food quality. The germination of seedlings can be helped along by CNT, which is a positive impact in food quality. The application of CNTbased nanomaterials in food industry is the focus of our research.
Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are expected to become a major player in different industrial sector as a result of biological performance, photocatalysis, adsorption and absorption behavior, capacitance, improved anodic performance in energy storage. In biomedical industries, MOFs utilize antimicrobial characteristics and biosensing, bioimaging, therapeutic, drug delivery capabilities. MOF can be used as a food safety and food packaging agent since they prevent microbes. By photocatalysis MOF can contribute to wastewater treatment. MOFs adsorption and absorption characteristics can remediate groundwater. Improved capacitance and anodic behavior of MOF will contribute to energy storage device improvement. MOFs are also capable of separating gases from mixtures. Thus, MOF will play vital role in biomedical, food, water-treatment industry, oil-gas industry, and energy storage industry. Energy, environment, biomedical applications make MOF important in 4 th industrial revolution. This study will focus on special properties along with different industrial application and show the effectiveness of MOF in 4 th industrial application.
