The synthesis of eco-friendly nanomaterials involves several green chemistry principles:
- Green Solvents: Using water or other non-toxic solvents instead of hazardous chemicals. - Biological Methods: Employing microorganisms or plant extracts to synthesize nanoparticles. - Energy Efficiency: Utilizing processes that consume less energy, such as _microwave-assisted synthesis_. - Resource Efficiency: Using renewable resources and minimizing waste generation.
