Given that the threat of water shortage is expanding across the globe, the evolution of advanced technologies that enable water purification and, thus, water re-use in an energy and resource efficient manner are of great importance. In this regard, nanomaterials have been playing a crucial role and offering new opportunities for the construction of permeable and selective membranes and adsorbents. Such features are of paramount importance, particularly given the limited available energy resources. In this book, several recent studies are introduced that deal with water treatment via nanomaterial-based technologies. Such state-of-the-art technologies have employed nanomaterials that are made of polymer, composite, ceramic, and carbon, etc., and are shaped in various dimensionalities and forms such as particle (0D), fiber (1D), and film (2D–3D). The nanostructured membranes and adsorbents as well as photocatalytic nanosystems capable of active photodecomposition of organic pollutants, e.g., dyes, are the main focal points of discussion.

This Special Issue covers solution synthesis, processing, and applications of non-metallic nanomaterials. Zhang et. al. and Jiang et. al. focus on synthesis of kesterite materials, and Wu et. al. and Zhang et. al. focus on synthesis of copper chromium oxide delafossite nanomaterials. Three of these papers discuss solar cell applications using these materials. Yun and Park’s review paper explores the self-assembly of complex nanostructures. Bhalothia et al. show enhanced catalytic activity for NiOx@Pt nanostructures and Wu et. al. report high-sensitivity ammonia sensors made from SnO nanoshells. On flexible electronics, Nakamura et. al. developed Cu nitride ink for rapid photonic processing of conducting lines, Liu et. al. made Au/HfO2/Pt resistive random access memory devices, and Moreira et al. fabricated solution combustion oxide thin film transistors.
