Carbon nanotubes have made a meteoric career in the past 15 years, even if their applications are still limited. However, recently it was discovered that if the application of products and commodities containing carbon nanotubes will increase in the future, then there will be a higher probability for the tubes to get into the environment during their production, usage or disposal, to be distributed there, and to bind pollutants such as heavy metals on their way trough the environment.
