Abstract

A recent development in nanotechnology is green nanotechnology. The major concerns of this technology are improving health status, ensuring sustainable energy, ensuring sustainable environmental and green economy, and reducing waste.  This research is, therefore, concerned with the role of green nanotechnology and the potential role of green nanoparticles in environmental remediation and wastewater treatment. This technology is expected to effectively treat contaminated water, heavy metal-containing water, and polymer waste. Green nanotechnology is not limited to only wastewater treatment but also recycling technology. Hence, the role of green nanotechnology in recycling material is highlighted. The potential role of green nanoparticles in wastewater treatment and mitigating climatic change is seen. It is expected the green nanotechnology will enables nanoabsorbants, nano member, and nano filters which help to produce clean water supply. The technology is also likely to yield green hydrogen which adds to energy security. This technique is expected to create a suitable environment free from pollution by realizing clean water supply and secure, sustainable, and clean energy.  

Keywords: Biopolymer, energy security, green nanotechnology, green hydrogen, wastewater, recycling
