Preface Carbon is a prime element used widely in various aspects of human civilization, since it forms strong bonds than any other materials in different forms. In the past few decades, several carbon-based nano-materials have been developed through various synthesis processes. The unique and tunable properties of carbon-based nano-materials enable new technologies for identifying and addressing varied field challenges. This book critically assesses the contributions of carbon-based nano- materials and related case studies in the allied field. The unique morphology and multifaceted properties of Carbon has enabled them to be used in multidisciplinary fields. This special volume on “Novel Applications of Carbon Based Nano- Materials” published by CRC Press, Taylor and Francis Group mainly deals with different types of allotropes and forms of Carbon that are widely used in the field of Energy Storage, Waste Water Treatment, Mechanical Engineering and Medical Applications. This book consists of total 21 Chapters contributed by Experts and Researchers in their respective fields, broadly classified here under 4 different categories. Part I covers the area of Photo catalytic and Energy Storage Applications; where the chapters mainly cover the topics of Carbon Quantum Dots synthesis and application in the photo catalytic applications and mainly projects the super capacitors application for energy storage using carbon based nano-materials. Part II illustratively discusses the use of carbon based nano-materials for Mechanical and Engineering Applications; wherein the chapters mainly deal with the synthesis of the Carbon nanomaterials or their composites which have the Thermal, Aerospace, Tribological and other allied mechanical or Engineering applications. Part III deals with Bioscience and Medical Applications discussing the recent trends in the field of biomedical. The use of nanotechnology against Corona Virus and removal of antibiotics is discussed here. This section also covers scope and challenges for Green synthesis of functional nano particles. Part IV covers the Waste Water Treatment and Environmental Applications; subdivided into chapters which precisely cover the Socio-economic Impact of Waste management especially targeting water treatments. Apart the impacts of carbon- based nanomaterials in biological and allied systems are also discussed in the said section. vi Preface We hope this volume will be very much helpful not only to the researchers in the field of Nanotechnology and Carbon-based nano-materials; but also the students studying in the allied areas. It is our pleasure to offer sincere gratitude to all the authors for their valuable contributions and the reviewers for the improvement of the articles. We extend our thanks to the publisher for creating and making us to avail the platform. Swamini Chopra Kavita Pande Vincent Shantha Kumar Jitendra A.
