Graphene-family nanomaterials in wastewater treatment plants

The release of graphene and its derivatives in soil, air and water seems an inevitable consequence of the massive future use of these carbonaceous allotropes. From an environmental engineering point of view, it should be noted that part of the aqueous streams containing these nanomaterials will end up in wastewater treatment plants, and there will be interactions between the nanomaterials, the other pollutants in the sewage and the...
