Nanopinion: Transformative innovations in water quality monitoring enabled by additive manufacturing and plasmonic nanoengineering
Read the latest Nanopinion by Dr. Sara Fateixa and Dr. S. Kumar, where they explore the potential of additive manufacturing (AM) combined with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) in water quality monitoring. With this new technology, the authors demonstrate a promising future for high-performance, cost-effective, and portable water quality sensors.
"The development of AM-enabled SERS sensors for water pollutants detection represents a significant advancement in environmental monitoring technologies. The high sensitivity and specificity of the nanocomposite lattice decorated with plasmonic NPs make it a powerful tool for detecting a wide range of water pollutants, from heavy metals and pesticides to organic contaminants.”
Background
The EUON Nanopinion is a platform where different contributors ranging from policymakers and authorities to industry and civil society such as NGOs and researchers, share their views on their work and priorities related to nanomaterials in the EU.
