Green Synthesis of Nanomaterials Develop sustainable nanomaterial applications with this cutting-edge introduction Nanomaterials are one of the most important areas of scientific and industrial development, with impacts in virtually every area touched by materials science. Their unique properties have particularly widespread applications in biomedical and environmental research, where they contribute to sustainable and cost-effective processes. The synthesis of nanomaterials, however, can itself be costly and environmentally damaging; green or sustainable synthesis of nanomaterials is an essential development if the full potential of these transformative materials is to be realized. Green Synthesis of Nanomaterials: Biological and Environmental Applications presents a cutting-edge overview of green synthesis processes and their applications. It takes a comparative approach in order to emphasize the advantages of green-synthesized nanomaterials over their chemically synthesized counterparts. The result is a vital contribution to biomedical and environmental research and product development. Green Synthesis of Nanomaterials: Biological and Environmental Applications readers will also find: The latest research compiled by a team of established scholars Detailed discussion of applications in fields including anticancer and antibacterial research and environmental remediation, among many others Coverage of topics including magnetotactic bacteria, green nanomaterials in the textile industry, and many others Green Synthesis of Nanomaterials: Biological and Environmental Applications is ideal for researchers and scientists in chemistry, biology, materials science, or nanotechnology, as well as for technologists in any industry that can benefit from green-synthesized nanomaterials.

BOOK EXCERPT:
This book is concerned with functional nanomaterials, materials containing specific, predictable nanostructures whose chemical composition, or interfacial structure enables them to perform a specific job: to destroy, sequester, or detect some material that constitutes an environmental threat. Nanomaterials have a number of features that make them ideally suited for this job: they have a high surface area, high reactivity, easy dispersability, and rapid diffusion,to name a few. The purpose of this book is to showcase how these features can be tailored to address some of the environmental remediation and sensing/detection problems faced by mankind today. A number of leading researchers have contributed to this volume, painting a picture of diverse synthetic strategies, structures, materials, and methods. The intent of this book is to showcase the current state of environmental nanomaterials in such a way as to be useful either as a research resource, or as a graduate level textbook. We have organized this book into sections on nanoparticle-based remediation strategies, nanostructured inorganic materials (e.g. layered materials like the apatites), nanostructured organic/inorganic hybrid materials, and the use of nanomaterials to enhance the performance of sensors.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Green nanomaterials are classed as nanomaterials with no environmentally harmful, toxic, properties. The photocatalysis of nanomaterials involves photo-conduction value in efficient removal/degradation of noxious pollutants. Green nanotechnology has objectives for the development of products and processes which are environmentally friendly, economically sustainable, safe, energy-efficient, and produce little waste or emissions. Such products and processes are based on renewable materials and/or have a low net impact on the environment. Green functionalized nanomaterials, formed by a combination of nanomaterials with natural materials or are derived through a green source, are the new trends in the remediation of pollutants in environmental industries. This has the effect of making photoactive nanomaterials work under UV/sunlight radiation in order to produce reactive radical species that rapidly remove pollutants by redox mechanism. Green Functionalized Nanomaterials for Environmental Applications focuses on recent developments in the area of fabrication of green nanomaterials and their properties. It also looks at ways of lowering the risk of exposure of green functionalized nanomaterials. This needs to be pursued in the future for investigating and assessing health risks, which may be due to exposure to green nanomaterials. It is an important reference source for all those seeking to improve their understanding of how green functionalized nanomaterials are being used in a range of environmental applications, as well as considering potential toxicity implications. - Highlights innovative industrial technologies for green functionalized nanomaterials - Covers major fabrication techniques for sustainable functionalized nanomaterials - Shows how sustainable functionalized nanomaterials are being developed for commercial applications
