Nanotechnology for removal of contaminants from water and mosquito larvicidal agent

Nanotechnology for removal of contaminants from water and mosquito larvicidal agent

  • DRL has developed facile technologies for synthesis of nanomaterials/ Mesoporous materials using green approach as well as chemical route. Locally available plant resources and waste food stuffs are utilized to synthesize nanomaterials.  
  • These nanoparticles are found to be effective to remove arsenic and fluoride from contaminated water as well for control of bacteria. 
  • Synthesized nanoparticles are also effective as mosquito larvicidal agent and are found to be effective against  Anopheles stephensi and Culex quinquefasciatus mosquito species.
