Applied chemistry acts as a crucial link between fundamental molecular science and practical technological innovation. It transforms theoretical knowledge into real-world applications that address challenges in healthcare, environment, and industry. This review highlights recent advancements in electrochemical biosensors, which offer rapid and sensitive diagnostic capabilities, along with modern gas detection technologies designed for improved safety and environmental monitoring. Significant attention is given to environmental remediation, particularly the use of activated carbon for efficient removal of pollutants from air and water.
In addition, the integration of data science—especially big data analytics and cognitive computing—is revolutionizing drug discovery and enabling more precise personalized medicine. These tools enhance predictive modeling, reduce development timelines, and improve therapeutic outcomes. The review also discusses the thermophysical properties of nanofluids, which demonstrate improved heat transfer efficiency and have potential applications in energy systems and industrial processes. Lastly, the kinetics of heavy metal adsorption using biomass-derived materials is examined, emphasizing sustainable and cost-effective approaches to pollution control.
Together, these developments underscore the interdisciplinary nature of applied chemistry and its vital role in shaping a more sustainable and technologically advanced future.
