Abstract

Nanotechnology is an advanced emerging science that has application in mostly the fields of industry, environmental issues, biotechnology, health, and medicine. NanoRemediation is a technique that uses nanoparticles for bio remediation. It is mainly used to treat wastewater soil, contaminated environmental materials, groundwater, and sediments. In this technology, nano titanium dioxide or non-toxic nano particles are used. In essence, chlorine-containing organic waste is removed using nano remediation. Although this method is a good technology, it is still present in investigational stages and has been applied mostly in laboratories.
