This book was released on 2021-10-14 with total page 776 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The main goal of Agri-Waste and Microbes for Production of Sustainable Nanomaterials is to assess the most recent trends in the production of bionanomaterials from agricultural waste and microorganisms. The book covers the green synthesis of various nanomaterials using microorganisms and agricultural waste. The synthesis of nanocellulose materials from agri-wastes is emerging as an alternative for waste treatment methods, developing new biosensors and antimicrobial agents. Silicon nanoparticles are an additional ingredient for the improvement of crop yields. With recent advances in nanomaterials synthesis and in their biomedical, environmental, and agricultural applications, it is hoped that these methods will be implemented at large scale because of their industrial applications in different sectors. The use of agro-waste and microbes not only minimizes the cost of nanomaterial production but also decreases the application of traditional agrochemicals and encourages 'green synthesis' as a strong step toward sustainable agricultural development. The present book has been divided into two parts. Part I is focused on production of nanomaterials from agric-waste like metallic, copper, silica, cellulose, nanopolymers and nano/microplastics Part II reviews appropriate biological methods such as agricultural and microbial synthesis of metallic/metal oxide, magnetic, silver, copper, nanomaterials, nanoginseng, and nanonutrients, etc. This book is an important reference source for plant scientists, materials scientists, and environmental scientists who want to understand how agri-waste can be used to produce a new generation of sustainable nanomaterials."--Back cover
