Description 1148-1152
Environmental pollution is serious threat for all living organisms. Nanoparticle synthesis using green approach is a
non-toxic, easy and energy saving process. Varieties of species have the unique capability to synthesize commercially
useful nanoparticles from various metal salt precursors that can help in environmental remediation. The combination
of nanotechnology and bioremediation is known as Nanobioremediation. Researchers have shown that biologically
nanoparticles shows great potential in reducing environmental pollution from water and soil by adsorption of pollutants and
harmful toxic substances from their environment .These greennanoparticles can converttoxic chemicals into less toxic form.
Studies also shown that metal nanoparticles also help in removal of harmful bacteria and fungi from environment which can
cause diseases in living system. Green synthesised nanoparticles shows very promising results when it comes to
environmental remediation they have been used as dye degrader, Oil degrader, photocatalytic agents, biosensors, heavy
metals and persidtent organic particulate (POPs) absorbers etc. This review focus on the current status of different types of
biologically synthesised nanoparticles in environmental pollution from different species and future challenges associated
with environmental remediation.
