Advancements through Sustainable Green Nanocomposites investigates how nanotechnology plays a role in tackling global sustainability challenges. Moreover, the ongoing aim is to link innovative findings of nanomaterials with promising sustainable applications in different industries. In this context, the authors focus on providing applications of sustainable and biogenic synthethis methods, sustainable practices, etc., to develop novel nanocomposites that are functional but have limited consequences to the environment. The authors use interdisciplinary perspectives leading toward understanding how sustainable nanocomposites can accelerate transportation of such applications into environmental remediation, agriculture, construction, health care, and more.

The scope of this book encompasses the assessment of the synthesis, classification, and applications of sustainable nanocomposites, with emphasis on environmental, economic, and social benefits and impacts. What establishes this book as unique is its approach to combine extensive disclosures on science to applications, with a laudable focus on biodegradable materials, as well as recyclable materials, while sensibly appreciating regulatory frameworks and environmental impacts. Accordingly, this book can benefit researchers, professionals within the industry, and policymakers interested in the situational applications of nanotechnology for sustainable development.
