Green Nanomaterials for Energy and Environment: Protocols and Applications provides a comprehensive account of the various green protocols used for the synthesis of nanomaterials, their characterization techniques, toxicity evaluation, and various applications in the field of energy and environment. The book covers the optimal experimental routes and mechanisms for the formation of benign nanoparticles and their use in energy conversion, storage, and environmental applications. Overall, the volume offers an extensive and comprehensive review of the preparation, properties, and prospective applications of green nanomaterials.
Green synthesis is considered a reliable, sustainable, and environmentally-friendly method for creating a variety of nanomaterials, including metal and metal oxide nanoparticles, hybrid materials, and bioinspired materials. Thus, green synthesis is regarded as a key strategy for reducing the negative environmental effects frequently linked to conventional nanoparticle synthesis methods used in both laboratory and industrial settings.
