Chapter 10. Environmental impacts of silver from spent nanosources
Multi-purpose use of nanosilver and nanosilver-functionalized materials creates a pool of different sources of nanosilver waste in the environment. The usual sources come from the biocidal activities, incineration, release in the environment or in living organisms (household, medical treatment/equipment with nanosilver or drinking water treatment) while silver nanomaterials are in use or during their disposal. Silver nanoparticles may adhere to soils, or undergo transport in ground, surface, and drinking waters in completely different way as compared to bulk materials. There is still no general strategy for safe management of nanowaste. Although with lower production volume than other nanomaterials and decreasing sewage sludge content, its intentional and unintentional environmental release, with still unknown toxicological impacts due to chronic and/or low-dose exposure, higher bioavailability in the water, air, soil, and its transformation to silver ions, makes nanosilver even more dangerous. This chapter will present the most common sources of nanosilver from spent sources, the properties of silver nanoparticles that can influence the bioaccumulation, bioavailability and environmental risk and will demonstrate the impact that still unexplored nanowaste can have on the humans and living environment in general.
