Nanoengineering for enhanced toxic metals adsorption: Nanoengineering for Enhanced Toxic Metals Adsorption: From Synthesis to Biorecognition

Author(s): Allwin Mabes Raj (Author), Aleksandra Lobnik (Supervisor), Aleš Lapanje (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2025

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Environmental contamination by toxic metals—such as Pb²⁺, Cr³⁺, and Hg²⁺—and organometallic species like monomethylmercury (MeHg) presents one of the most persistent global challenges due to their bioaccumulation, long-term toxicity, and resistance to degradation. This thesis addresses this critical issue through a multidisciplinary approach combining nanotechnology, environmental chemistry, biosensor engineering, and …

Plasma-enabled design of hybrid carbon nanostructures for energy storage applications

Author(s): Neelakandan Marath Santhosh (Author), Uroš Cvelbar (Supervisor), Gregor Filipič (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2021

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Carbon, one of the most abundant materials in the earth crust, has gained research attention owing to its high structural stability, electrical conductivity, optical and thermal properties. Additionally, the possibility of tailoring carbon materials at nanoscales makes them promising materials for many applications, including energy storage, sensors, biomedical and electronics. …
