Özet

The integration of nanotechnology into extraction methods has revolutionized separation and purification approaches by offering high selectivity, sensitivity, efficiency, and environmental sustainability. Among several nanomaterials, encapsulated nanomaterials have emerged as a promising class due to their excellent morphology, high surface area, tunable porosity, and controllable surface functionalities. Encapsulation stabilizes nanomaterials, improves reproducibility, enhances stability during extraction, and minimizes waste. Furthermore, encapsulated nanomaterials have high potential for achieving high extraction efficiency in real-time applications and eliminating various analytes. Encapsulation stabilizes nanomaterials, improves reproducibility, enhances stability during extraction, and minimizes waste. This review explores cutting-edge developments in encapsulated nanomaterials for extraction techniques (solid-phase extraction and solid-phase microextraction), offering insights into their potential to reduce ecological footprints, enhance resource recovery efficiency, and facilitate the pretreatment of organic and inorganic contaminants. This review examines the encapsulation methods and mechanisms that govern host-guest interactions, supporting excellent performance. The ecological benefits of exploring sustainable materials, such as metal-organic frameworks, biodegradable polymers, covalent organic frameworks, and hybrid nanocomposites, as well as encapsulating materials, are also highlighted. Conclusively, key challenges, emerging trends, and future directions are outlined to guide the development of next-generation encapsulated nanomaterials, aiming to achieve highly efficient, sustainable, and economically extracted technologies. The continuous evolution in this field promises to revolutionize industrial extraction methods.
