Abstract

Globally, soil contamination threatens the ecosystem and human health. Ecological, financial, and efficiency issues plague excavation, chemical, and bioremediation methods. Nanotechnology is a promise for soil remediation, offering advantages over existing approaches. Nanotechnology technologies for soil pollution treatment and environmental conservation are covered in this chapter. It examines heavy metals, organic pollutants, pesticides, and radioactive contamination in soil and the limitations of current remediation methods. The chapter next discusses nanotechnology in soil remediation, including nanoparticles, nanomaterials for adsorption and degradation, nano-bioremediation, and nanosensors for pollution monitoring. Case studies and research show nanotechnology's success in soil remediation. Future nanotechnology for soil remediation views and difficulties highlight the need for more research and development to address scalability, cost-effectiveness, and environmental safety.
