“…Although the area of nanoscience is relatively new, nanotechnology will play an essential role in the development of novel arsenic treatment process (Jing and Meng 2009); moreover, nanomaterials are drivers of the nanotechnology revolution (Savage and Diallo 2005). Thus, a key factor for the applications of nanotechnology to water purification will be the availability of suppliers that can provide large quantities of nanomaterials at economically acceptable prices (Prasse and Ternes 2010) (Fig. 1).…”

Contamination of natural waters with arsenic, which is both toxic and carcinogenic, is widespread. Among various technologies that have been employed for arsenic removal from water, such as coagulation, filtration, membrane separation, ion exchange, etc., adsorption offers many advantages including simple and stable operation, easy handling of waste, absence of added reagents, compact facilities, and generally lower operation cost, but the need for technological innovation for water purification is gaining attention worldwide. Nanotechnology is considered to play a crucial role in providing clean and affordable water to meet human demands. This review presents an overview of nanoparticles and nanobased adsorbents and its efficiencies in arsenic removal from water. The paper highlights the application of nanomaterials and their properties, mechanisms, and advantages over conventional adsorbents for arsenic removal from contaminated water.

“…Nanoparticle-mediated photocatalysis is another interesting approach for water disinfection, and TiO 2 has been found to be effective against different pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, and fungi (Prasse & Ternes, 2010 ) Zhu et al ( 2020 ) reviewed the formation of nanostructured manganese oxides and their application in wastewater remediation; these oxides can catalyze peroxides to produce ROS in aqueous phase, thus initiating in situ chemical oxidation and AOPs. Duan, ( 2019 ) performed a proof-of-concept study to unravel the principles in developing fine-tuned and high-performance transition metal (TM)@carbon composites for advanced catalytic oxidation for water decontamination.…”

Advanced Oxidation Processes for Water and Wastewater Viral Disinfection. A Systematic Review

Water and wastewater virological quality is a significant public health issue. Viral agents include emerging and re-emerging pathogens characterized by extremely small size, and high environmental stability. Since the mainly used conventional disinfection methods are usually not able to achieve complete disinfection of viral and other microbial targets, in real water and wastewater matrices, effective strategies for the treatment, use and reuse of water and the development of next-generation water supply systems are required. The scope of the present systematic review was to summarize research data on the application of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for viral disinfection of water and wastewater. A literature survey was conducted using the electronic databases PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. This comprehensive research yielded 23 records which met the criteria and were included and discussed in this review. Most of the studies (14/23) used only MS2 bacteriophage as an index virus, while the remaining studies (9/23) used two or more viral targets, including phages (MS2, T4, T7, phiX174, PRD-1, S2, ϕB124-14, ϕcrAssphage) and/or Adenovirus, Aichivirus, Norovirus (I, II, IV), Polyomavirus (JC and BK), Sapovirus, Enterovirus, Coxsackievirus B3, Echovirus, and Pepper mild mottle virus. The vast majority of the studies applied a combination of two or more treatments and the most frequently used process was ultraviolet light-hydrogen peroxide (UV/H 2 O 2 ) advanced oxidation. The review is expected to highlight the potential of the AOPs for public health protection from the waterborne viral exposure.
