Abstract
Technology that uses engineering and green chemistry means using plant products. It minimizes energy and fuel use by
using less material and renewable inputs, so-called green technology as an innovative pathway for sustainability. Green
nanotechnology refers to the utilization of nanotechnology to enhance the environmental sustainability of processes
producing negative externalities. By integrating the principles of green chemistry and engineering, green
nanotechnology can produce safe and eco-friendly metal nanoparticles that do not use toxic chemicals in their
synthesis. Green nanotechnology takes a broad systems view of nanomaterials and products, ensuring that unforeseen
consequences are minimized and that impacts are anticipated throughout the full life cycle. This mini-review is a
comprehensive study of green nanotechnology and its utilization towards sustainability.
