Abstract

The rapid advancements in nanotechnology have significantly transformed various industries, with iron-based nanoparticles emerging as a key material due to their unique properties and diverse applications. Green synthesis methods provide an eco-friendly and sustainable alternative to conventional chemical/physical synthesis, utilizing biological agents such as plant extracts, algae, & micro-organisms. These methods rely on phytochemicals as reducing and stabilizing agents, ensuring minimal environmental impact while enabling precise tailoring of nanoparticle properties. Biogenic FeNPs demonstrate immense potential across multiple domains: targeted drug delivery, wastewater treatment and pollutant removal, in agriculture as green alternatives to chemical pesticides, and in catalysis for energy-efficient chemical reactions. This chapter highlights the potential of green-synthesized iron nanoparticles and emphasizes the need for continued research to advance sustainable practices, paving the way for groundbreaking applications that benefit both industry and the environment.
