For that, remediation strategies and techniques have been designed, yet they are limited. Here, the recent development of nanotechnology opens a new vista for environmental remediation. In particular, nanomaterials displaying enzyme-like activities, named ‘nanozymes’, appear very promising for environmental monitoring, contaminant detection, microbial management, and degradation of organic pollutants. Nanomaterials including metallic, metal oxides and carbon-based nanoparticles with nanozymes activities have been synthesized. These nanozymes have similar activities as natural peroxidase, oxidase, superoxide dismutase and catalase enzymes. Nanozymes have several advantages, yet they suffer from several limitations such as low catalytic efficiency, less substrate selectivity, biocompatibility, and lack of engineering of the active sites. This book reviews the latest developments and applications of nanozymes in environmental science.Environmental chemistry for a sustainable world ;Volume 63.Nanostructured materialsEnvironmental aspectsNanobiotechnologyNanostructured materialsEnvironmental aspects.Nanobiotechnology.620.1150286Daima Hemant KumarPN NavyaLichtfouse EricMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910768469203321Nanozymes for Environmental Engineering1963624UNINA
