Current Scenario of MXene-Based Nanomaterials for Wastewater Remediation: A Review

Abstract: Rapid urban and industrial sectors generate massive amounts of wastewater, creating severe ecological disruption and harming living organisms. The number of harmful pollutants such as dyes, heavy metals, antibiotics, phenolic compounds, and volatile and several organic chemicals discharged into aquatic systems varies depending on the effluent composition of various sectors. MXene-based composites with unique characteristics were spotlighted as newly developed nanomaterials specifically for environmental-relate… Show more

“…An exciton is formed when a weak coulombic force attracts an excited electron and a hole pair. As a result of the restricted mobility of excited electrons, a significant band gap is created, which can prevent recombination processes that result in the loss of active electrons [4].…”

“…The PEC system requires a source of energy to initiate the water splitting process. The photoelectrode is typically composed of a photoactive semiconductor that separates photogenerated charge carriers through the space-charge field [19,24]. The minority of these carriers then migrate to the interface between the semiconductor and liquid for the reaction to take place.…”

“…Since the emergence of solar PV technology, this technology has been explored for the production of hydrogen energy as the next frontier of sustainable technology in replacing conventional fossil fuels [24,49]. The growing interest in these two technologies, either solar PV technology or solar PEC technology, has resulted in hundreds of studies published related to both technologies [19,50].…”
