Smart Nanocatalysts Promise Cleaner Air, Water and Soil, Review Finds

A systematic review of 196 studies finds that Industry 5.0-enabled nanocatalysts show strong single-matrix pollution removal, but integrated air-water-soil remediation remains experimentally unproven. What distinguishes this review from earlier, single-compartment surveys is its framing. The authors define News Source: Bethany Barker.
