Abstract

@biochar, and ZnO@biochar), redox-tunable hybrids, nano zero-valent metals and single-atom catalysts. We discuss pesticide structure-reactivity frameworks that guide degradation efficiency and highlight data-driven predictive modeling approaches as a paradigm shift for the rational nanocomposite design. By linking mechanistic insights with computational intelligence, this perspective lays the groundwork for scalable and sustainable pesticide remediation.
