title = "A Nano-Based Approach Toward the Sustainable Recovery of Nutrients from the Food Industry Generated Wastewater",
abstract = "The sustainable practice of recovering nutrients from wastewater is rapidly growing in popularity as it addresses wastewater treatment while simultaneously meeting the urgent demand for nutrients which are often a limited resource. Treatment of nutrient-rich wastewater requires adherence to stringent discharge policies and practices to avoid detrimental environmental and social impacts such as eutrophication and groundwater contamination. In recent years, nanotechnology has emerged as a promising solution to challenges faced by conventional approaches through the application of novel nanomaterials with unique characteristics such as greater aspect ratio, tuneable properties, and quantum confinement. This chapter discusses the applications of nanotechnology and nanomaterials associated with nutrient recovery from wastewater. In addition, it presents an overview of the existing established technologies employed by industries for nutrient recovery pointing to their potential use by the food industry. Finally, the study highlights research gaps and future perspectives regarding this field.",
