Abstract(s)
The wide spread use and strong reliance on both
fertilizers and pesticides made of agrigenic pollution one
of the major contemporary threats to environment and
human health. Impacts on the environment vary from
local effects, such as eutrophycation1, 2, loss of
biodiversity and diminished ecosystem health3, to global
effects, such as the aggravation of global warming2, 4 and
ozone layer depletion5. The novelty of nanoremediation
and its early successes, reported for various contexts,
present the prospect for the development of relevant
applications for agrigenic contaminants.
