Numerous hazardous materials created by the domestic and industrial industries can be detected in the atmosphere, especially water bodies. These contaminants, in many cases, are very harmful and can generate highly toxic by-products in environments. The conventional methods for treatment and degradation of such contaminants are not effective. In addition, chemical detoxification that can be uses of to remove or reduce the presence of the contaminants from the environment by a different mechanism such as coagulation, and activated carbon adsorption are not usually accepted due to the raised concerns regarding the chemical residues and other consequences.
The application of emerging technology, such as nanotechnology for the degradation of hazardous materials from the environment, is among the hot research topics. Recently, MXene, as an emerging nanomaterial, has gained rapid attention owing to their unique mechanical, chemical, and electrical properties and many successful attempts have been focused on using MXenes in water treatment and environmental remediation applications. Based on the available data, the application of Mxene-based nanomaterial (MBN) technologies alone or combined with conventional techniques is in the primary stage of evaluation and their extensive applications for removing contaminations using MBNs technologies should be forecasted and encouraged.
This special issue aims to attract the recent findings on the degradation of various toxic residuals by using MBN technologies, which are the keys to the development of scientific-based prevention strategies aiming to save our environment. The academics, researchers, and professional engineers are encouraged to submit their hot and high quality researches in terms of following topics.
Specific topics:
Degradation of hazardous pollutants (e.g. antibiotics, pesticides, heavy metals, ions, bacterial pathogens and natural toxins residual) by MBN methods
Degradation of micro and nanoplastics by MBN methods
Application of MBNs in membrane materials for desalination
Application of MBNs in membrane materials for bacterial inactivation and degradation
MBNs for adsorption of hazardous pollutants
Mxene-based electrodes for electrochemical hazardous pollutants degradation
Antimicrobial MBNs for water disinfection and microbial control
Novel method of synthesis of MBNs for hazardous pollutants degradation
Nanotoxicological effects of MBNs

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) based materials have attracted great interest as excellent nanomaterials and precursors in water treatment fields such as adsorption, catalysis, membrane separation, desalination, etc. In the past decade, numerous exciting advances of MOFs and their derived materials have been made in recent water treatment related research fields and the large-scale production and implementation have also been operated in many industries. However, on the other hand, the actual cost effectiveness and stability of MOFs-based materials, as well as the ecological and health effects caused by its potential release into the environment, have caused public concerns and in-depth reflection. The primary reactive active sites and reaction mechanism towards contaminants are urgent problems to be solved. Moreover, the use-cost, recycling ability, transformation pathways, and ecological and human toxicity are required in the practical process. To resolve the beneficial applications and refrain harm to the environment of MOFs-based materials in water treatment, there is a call for the deeply research in terms of the material synthesis and interactions with contaminants.
This special issue coverage includes, but is not limited to, the following research topics and areas: 1) MOFs and their derived materials for water treatment; 2) Adsorption; 3) Advanced oxidation process (AOPs); 4) Membrane separation; 5) Capacitive deionization (CDI); 6) Detection.
