Abstract

The manufacturers of cost-effective water treatment products for potable water with lower maintenance and installation costs have been trying hard to explore state-of-the-art water filtration technologies based on nanostructured materials and advanced membrane systems. Five latest water purification technologies, identified recently, have been projected as emerging alternatives to the existing ones, include photo oxidation as one of them (PR-01). Ongoing studies of 2D-nanomaterials (2D-NMs) have already established their photocatalytic properties. Lamellar 2D-NMs based nanocomposites appear still more promising for designing photocatalysts with enhanced capabilities. Some of these nanocomposites, examined recently, are being designed for their uses in the Point-Of-Use (POU) water filtration units that are independent of the quality of input water. Such POU water filtration units are expected to gain considerable importance once developed fully as the nanocomposites employed therein would be capable of thoroughly removing the bacterial contaminants in water particularly [1- 3].
