ABSTRACT
The novel coronavirus pneumonia epidemic (COVID over line 19) brings a serious threat to the development of human society and the health of human beings. Due to the stability of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 ( SARS over line CoV over line 2) in urban sewage, which has become one of the virus pollution sources, it has been a focus how to eliminate the existing virus in water. SARS over line CoV over line 2 structurally consists of RNA chains and protein capsids, and thus can be inactivated via reactive oxygen species ( ROS) attack. Moreover, block of biochemical metabolism and destruction of virus structure are also effective inactivation methods for SARS over line CoV over line 2 inactivation. Nanomaterials exhibit surface and interface effects, specific microstructure and excellent physicochemical properties, implying their high application potential in SARS over line CoV over line 2 inactivation. In this study, we overall review application of nanotechnologies for SARS over line CoV over line 2 inactivation, including photocatalysis, heterogeneous catalytic oxidation, ion toxicity induced inactivation, and structural effects inactivation method. Furthermore, based on the structural composition, as well as survival and transmission characteristics of SARS over line CoV over line 2 in water environment, the application potential of various nanotechnologies for SARS over line CoV over line 2 inactivation are deeply discussed. This study can provide a theoretical basis and practical reference for the application of nanotechnology for the SARS over line CoV over line 2 inactivation and the secondary transmission interruption in water.
