Abstract

Environmental catalysis is a promising technology to be integrated into the present water management systems to address several emerging challenges, such as rising pressures on water availability and the impact of micropollutants.

Increasing understanding (and capabilities for development) of nanotechnologies has created opportunities to enhance the performance of various catalytic systems. In particular, the characteristics of carbon nanomaterials have been shown to potentially improve the performance of traditional carbon materials as catalysts or catalyst supports in water treatment.

This chapter details how manipulation of carbon nanomaterials from the nano- to the macroscale is used to create catalysts tailored to the requirements of the target applications. The relationships between the design at the nanoscale, including surface chemistry and textural modifications, and the deployment of the catalysts at the macroscale are illustrated through a number of relevant examples. Several cases from recent literature are used to delineate the current state-of-the-art.

A brief outlook for the future of carbon nanomaterials as catalyst and catalyst support in water treatment is offered. The challenges in integrating these solutions in real applications are discussed, and a pathway to the future is suggested.
