MXene-based hybrid nano-architectures for environmental remediation and sensor applications : from design to applications /

Remedies to the problem of water scarcity are growing more and more significant, including desalination (DS) and the softening of ground, brackish, and ocean water. Brackish water DS and softening of water are regarded as an essential strategic option to meet the rising drinking water demand as an a...
