TL;DR: This review summarized the fundamental processes and mechanisms of “green” synthesis approaches, especially for metal and metal oxide nanoparticles using natural extracts and explored the role of biological components, essential phytochemicals (e.g., flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids, amides, and aldehydes) as reducing agents and solvent systems.

TL;DR: There is an urgent need to develop efficient REE recycling techniques from end-of-life products, technologies to minimize the amount of REEs required per unit device, and methods to recover them from fly ash or fossil fuel-burning wastes.

TL;DR: A rational vision of the main achievements of Ag NPs as nanocarriers for inhibition of various microbial agents (bacteria, fungus, and virus) is provided.

TL;DR: In this article, a review describes the basic need to unravel key mechanisms driving the storage vs. emission of these organics and the dynamics between the sorbent (biochar) and soil microbes, and there is an urgent need for standardized methods for quantitative analysis of PAHs and VOCs in biochar under environmentally relevant conditions.

TL;DR: The potential economic benefits of high-value nanomaterials (NMs) end-products are conducive for industrial scale operations as mentioned in this paper, and the added benefits of abating environmental pollution (e.g., from VOCs, VFAs, SO2, NOx, and heavy metals) further contributes to the significance of ongoing research in this particular area.
