Trilochan Ram Sahu, Sarbeswar Mishra, Sushreeta Patnaik
Abstract
Nanotechnology, at the intersection of physics, chemistry, engineering, and biology, has catalyzed revolutionary advancements across diverse fields, including energy, environment, healthcare, and material science. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the applications of nanotechnology, covering areas such as catalysis, sensing, drug delivery, energy conversion and storage, environmental remediation, and material science. The utilization of nanomaterials for energy generation, storage, and environmental remediation is explored, along with the development of nanoscale devices for sensing and drug delivery. Furthermore, challenges such as scalability, biocompatibility, cost-effectiveness, and ethical considerations are discussed, along with future directions focusing on multidisciplinary research, sustainability, precision medicine, and addressing global challenges. By addressing these challenges collaboratively and embracing interdisciplinary approaches, nanotechnology is poised to drive transformative advancements and address pressing societal needs in the 21st century.
