Abstract

Nanotechnology has emerged as a transformative tool in Green Chemistry and Life Sciences, offering innovative solutions to environmental, industrial, and healthcare challenges. This paper reviews recent advancements in nanotechnology, focusing on sustainable applications such as nano-catalysts for energy-efficient processes, nano-adsorbents for biomedical waste management, and biodegradable nanomaterials for drug delivery. Furthermore, the study explores the role of metal and non-metal oxide nanoparticles in optimizing catalyst reactions for green biomedicine. Despite the promising prospects, concerns regarding nanoparticle toxicity, environmental impact, and sustainability management remain critical challenges that necessitate regulatory and ethical considerations.
