What is The Lotus Effect in Detail? An Example of SiO2 and Other Hydrophobic Materials
The Lotus effect means the self-cleaning properties of the lotus flower that come out as a result of ultra-hydrophobicity. In this method, all the dirt particles are extracted out by water droplets because of the miniature work done on the surface as a result of which the adhesion of droplets is minimized.However, these properties are not only found in this flower but a few other flowers as well. They have a huge impact on the factors in which they play a role despite being at a certain level. T

Graphene-Based Materials for Wastewater Treatment
Wastewater treatment is an important topic concerning the sustainability of clean water resources and human health. Research shows that graphene and GO are promising adsorbent materials for the removal of organic and inorganic water pollutants. IntroductionGraphene-based wastewater treatment systems should be developed considering the properties of adsorbent, contaminant, background solution, and adsorbent regeneration. Water is the most fundamental material on Earth essential for surv

Water Purification and Nanotechnology
Nanotechnology is known to be a research field that is related to the making of such devices which are based upon either atoms or molecules. The nanoparticles or materials that are involved in nanotechnology are so small that they cannot be seen with a naked eye and rather microscopes are used to observe them. Nanomaterials are now taking place of conventional materials for treatment of water.IntroductionDespite their size being so small, they possess outstanding properties as a result of which
