Cover Story: This work focuses on the production of ceramic nanofibers from waste materials, which represents a significant contribution to the sustainable use of resources and innovative solutions in the field of nanotechnology. The research builds on existing knowledge of nanofiber production, with a specific focus on the use of zinc galvanizing flue dust. The main objective of the study is to explore the possibilities of converting zinc-containing waste materials into ceramic nanofibers, introducing a new direction in nanotechnology. Laboratory experiments involved leaching processes and electro-static spinning processes of zinc solutions. This study also examines the influence of contaminants from real waste solutions on the production of ceramic nanofibers and compares their properties with nanofibers obtained from synthetic solutions.
