A Brief History of the Green Synthesis of Nanomaterials
(Apple Academic Press, 2024) Atif Husain, Malik Nasibullah
Over the last few decades, green and sustainable processes have undergone a rapid metamorphosis into key strategic methods to address the majority of the drawbacks of conventional synthesis. Continual progression in the field of green synthesis has contributed vastly to the development of greener pathways leading to the establishment of newer, efficient, cleaner pathways at no cost of environmental sustainability. To overcome these, a search for a reliant and environmentally friendly pathway by minimizing the use of potentially hazardous substances and adherence to “green synthesis”, processes is the need of the hour. In establishing these pathways in the exploitation of environmentally friendly synthesis approaches, there is a brighter scope in the nurturance of remedial measures for the environment paving the way for nanoremediation. This necessity has become a driving factor in the creation of new research achievements in the same sector in creating a new, eco-friendly, and regenerative platform for both nanoremediation and green chemistry. Despite the tremendous development of this sector over the last 10 years, it is continuously growing with more effect. Because nanotechnology is multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary, the relationship between green chemistry and sustainability has shown to be a good element. Thus, the confluence of three major domains of research, namely Green Chemistry, Nanotechnology, and Sustainability, produces enhanced, unique, and much better necessary areas of study to cope with a decrease in environmental repercussions.
