Goals:
<br>
<br>This course tries to apply environmental nanotechnology to water and wastewater 
<br>treatment plants for enhancing the treatment efficiency of pollutants. The 
<br>fundamental concepts of nanotechnology and preparation of nanomaterials will be 
<br>introduced. In addition，specific nanomaterials on pollutant removal will be 
<br>emphasized.
