Multifunctional carbon nanotubes in water treatment: The present, past and future

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of carbon nanotube (CNT) based water treatment technologies is presented, which discusses most effective CNT based water purification technologies such as adsorption, hybrid catalysis, desalination, disinfection, sensing and monitoring of three major classes such as organic, inorganic and biological water pollutants.

Preparación y caracterización de nanofluidos de grafeno y nanotubos de carbono funcionalizados para su uso en procesos de transferencia de calor

TL;DR: In this paper, a trabajo se modificaron superficialmente grafeno and nanotubos de carbono de paredes multiples (MWCNT) with grupos funcionales carboxilo and amino, por medio de una oxidacion con acido nitrico and sulfurico, and posteriormente tratarlos with 2-(2-aminoetoxi)etanol for generar el grupo amino.

Toxicity determinants of multi-walled carbon nanotubes: The relationship between functionalization and agglomeration.

TL;DR: In this article, two optimized chemical vapor deposition methods were employed to obtain MWCNTs of comparable length but different diameter, which were subsequently functionalized and found to have a stronger tendency to agglomerate that was strictly dependent on the presence of proteins.

Surface modification of UF membranes with functionalized MWCNTs to control membrane fouling by NOM fractions

TL;DR: In this article, an ultrafiltration (UF) membrane was modified using a surface coating of raw and functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), and the results indicated that the modified membranes had a rougher surface than the virgin membrane because of the modification layer of MWCNTs.
