“…Desalination and wastewater treatment stand out as vital methods to ensure a safe and ample water supply, considering the vast water reserves in oceans and the continuous generation of wastewater. [ 9 ] Among these solutions, membrane separation systems have gained prominence for water purification, desalination, and wastewater treatment. [ 10 ] Desalination focuses on removing inorganic salts, while wastewater treatment involves eliminating heavy metals, organic dyes, pesticides, and oily substances along with inorganic salts.…”

Membrane technology emerges as a transformative solution for global challenges, excelling in water treatment, gas purification, and waste recycling. This comprehensive review navigates the principles, advantages, challenges, and prospects of membrane technology, emphasizing its pivotal role in addressing contemporary environmental and sustainability issues. The goal is to contribute to environmental objectives by exploring the principles, mechanisms, advantages, and limitations of membrane technology. Noteworthy features include energy efficiency, selectivity, and minimal environmental footprint, distinguishing it from conventional methods. Advances in nanomembranes, organic porous membranes, and metal‐organic frameworks‐based membranes highlight their potential for energy‐efficient contaminant removal. The review underscores the integration of renewable energy sources for eco‐friendly desalination and separation processes. The future trajectory unfolds with next‐gen nanocomposite membranes, sustainable polymers, and optimized energy consumption through electrochemical and hybrid approaches. In healthcare, membrane technology reshapes gas exchange, hemodialysis, biosensors, wound healing, and drug delivery, while in chemical industries, it streamlines organic solvent separation. Challenges like fouling, material stability, and energy efficiency are acknowledged, with the integration of artificial intelligence recognized as a progressing frontier. Despite limitations, membrane technology holds promise for sustainability and revolutionizing diverse industries.

Functional nanoengineering of nanofibrous materials is getting more important day by day due to an increased demand for smart nanomaterials in many industrial technologies. A simple synthesis and extraordinary features, e.g., high specific surface area, multi‐dimensional structure, small pores, self‐adjustment, flexibility, elasticity, etc., open a wide application range for smart nanofibers as important components in daily‐life appliances. These nanofibrous materials can potentially revolutionize medical, agriculture, food, energy, water, and wastewater treatment technologies due to their capacity to detect small changes (ppm and ppb levels) and simultaneously react to the involved environmental stimuli. In this work, a detailed overview of smart nanofibers in terms of their functionalities, fabrication strategies, and technological applications relevant to fulfilling society's sustainable development goals (SDGs) is provided. Various techniques for functionalizing the nanofibers are covered, along with their unique characteristics, which strengthen the portfolio of properties and thus new applications. Finally, the important usage of nanofibers in the environmental and human healthcare fields is briefly discussed, along with the potential applications in other future technologies. This work demonstrates the challenges and possibilities for smart nanofibers and their applications while simultaneously addressing a new era of multidisciplinary research toward the creation and new uses of smart nanofibers.

“…Developments in industrialization have caused an increase in environmental pollution such as biological contamination (bacteria, protozoa and viruses), organic (pesticides, herbicides, phenols, hydrocarbons, waste oil and endocrine disruptors) and inorganic (metalloids, phosphates, halogens, ammonia, nitrites and nitrates) substances [7]. To date, many biosensing platforms, including cell-based biosensors, have been demonstrated for environmental monitoring.…”
