PLANT-MEDIATED ECO-FRIENDLY SYNTHESIS AND APPLICATIONS OF CAO-NPS

Abstract

The development of more reliable and long-lasting methods for producing nanoparticles (NPs) is a cornerstone of environmentally friendly nanotechnology. The conventional method of producing nanoparticles is fraught with difficulty, costly, and potentially harmful to human and environmental health. In order to circumvent these risks, researchers synthesized biopolymers derived from plants, fungus, and bacteria into calcium oxide nanoparticles (CaO-NPs). Reaction conditions have a significant impact on CaO-NPs' size, function, and form. Additionally, environmentally benign synthesis of CaO nanoparticles is within the realm of possibility. Producing biofuels, incorporating refractory materials, removing Cr(VI), adsorbing pollutants, eliminating microbes, and transesterifying oil are just a few of the many promising uses for this. Several plant species and their components used to make CaO-NPs were examined by the researchers in this work. The method of production, functioning, description, and pure production were among the many CaO-NP themes discussed in the book. They claimed to be still running.
