| Abstract Scope |
In order to avoid exposure to environmental contaminants, one needs to develop cost effective sequestration technologies that can be easily deployed in contaminated areas, can be further retrieved and disposed in a safe manner and does not generate additional waste. Nanomaterials can be used as efficient sorbent materials of contaminants because they have an increased surface area-to-volume ratio and show higher reactivity than bulk. Their surface chemistry can be easily tailored for targeted in situ sensing and remediation processes. The rate of sorbed contaminants release is localized, noncontact, and targeted. The nanoparticles can be selectively stimulated to generate the desired amount of heat in a controlled manner. This presentation will demonstrate an efficient and rapid technique that can be used to load organic dyes on nanoengineered materials and remotely released in a controlled manner when exposed to plasmonic (light) or alternating magnetic field. |
