Environmental Applications of 2D Molybdenum Disulfide (MoS 2 ) Nanosheets

In an era of graphene-based nanomaterials as the most widely studied two-dimensional (2D) materials for enhanced performance of devices and systems in numerous environmental applications, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheets stand out as a promising alternative 2D material with many excellent physicochemical, biological, and mechanical properties that differ significantly from those of graphene-based nanomaterials, potentially leading to new environmental phenomena and novel applications. This Critical Review presents the latest advances in the use of MoS2 nanosheets for important water-related environmental applications such as contaminant adsorption, photocatalysis, membrane-based separation, sensing, and…
