Pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) are widely detected emerging contaminants in water environment and own high potential risks to human health and aquatic life; however, the conventional water treatment processes cannot remove them sufficiently. The booming of nanoscience and nanotechnology offered leapfrogging opportunities for developing innovative techniques in water treatment area.

Pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) are widely detected emerging contaminants in water environments and possess high potential risks to human health and aquatic life; however, conventional water treatment processes cannot remove them sufficiently. The boom in nanoscience and nanotechnology offers opportunities to leapfrog on the back of these new technologies to develop innovative techniques in the field of water treatment.
