Because of their unique properties and potential uses in a wide range of industries, nanomaterials have attracted a lot of attention. The many characteristics of nanomaterials and their uses in environmental technology are examined in this article. Different kinds of nanomaterials, such as nanoparticles, nanowires, and nanosheets, as well as their fabrication techniques—such as chemical vapour deposition, sol-gel procedures, and green synthesis—are methodically examined in this review. The use of nanomaterials in water purification, pollution control, and environmental remediation are some of the key applications that are covered. The review focusses on the developments in nanomaterial technology as well as how they can revolutionise the way environmental issues are resolved. This analysis offers insights into the efficient application of nanomaterials for sustainable environmental solutions by examining recent research and advancements.
