What is Two-dimensional Nanomaterial-based Chemosensors for the Detection of Contaminants in Air and Water about?

Air and water are the two most important necessities for the sustenance of life and hence an immense amount of research effort is being made by the scientific community to retain its quality and protect it from the ever-increasing pollution. All forms of human activities, starting from agriculture to industrialization, is directly or indirectly adding more and more contaminants to the environment, making it potentially unsuitable for living habitats day by day. Increasing pollution is deteriorating the normal quality of air, water, and soil, making it potentially unhealthy for the present and future generations. Increasing the concentration of particulate matter in the air can cause respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, central nervous system, and reproductive dysfunction. Inhalation of gases like nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, volatile organic compounds can cause different respiratory-related diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, asthma, bronchiolitis, lung cancer, etc. (Manisalidis et al., 2020). The World Health Organization (WHO) reported that every year about 4.2 million deaths happen due to exposure to toxic gases such
