An Introduction to Green Nanotechnology, Volume 28, provides students, scientists and chemical engineers with an overview of several types of nanostructures, discusses the synthesis and characterization of nanostructures, and provides applications of nanotechnology in daily life. The book offers a foundation to green nanotechnology by explaining why green nanotechnology is important. Covers biological sources in green nanotechnology, antioxidants, green nanostructures, mechanism, synthesis and characterization. The book ends with an evaluation of the risks of nanotechnology in human life and future perspectives.
- Introduces novel sources of plants having a high potential to be used as bio media to synthesize nanostructures
- Provides phytochemical properties and antioxidant potential, and their effects on stability, morphology and size of green nanostructures
- Includes a medicinal and technological comparison of green synthesized nanostructures to nano-products from non-green methods
- Uses accessible language, avoiding complex concepts of mathematics, biology and chemistry
(Post-)graduate students, scientists in academia and industry, chemical engineers working in the field of (green) nanotechnology

Mahmoud Nasrollahzadeh
Dr. Mahmoud Nasrollahzadeh is an Associate Professor and the Director of the Nanobiotechnology Laboratory at the University of Qom. Mahmoud’s research explores the synthesis of biowaste and nature-inspired (nano)materials and advanced functional porous materials for environmental applications, catalysis, and energy conversion. He received several national awards from his country including the 2021 Abu Rayhan Prize from the Iranian Academy of Sciences for the Top Young Chemist of Iran and the 2020 Distinguished Researcher Award from the Iran Science Elites Federation. In 2023, He visited Technische Universität Dresden (TUD), Germany, as a guest researcher under a Senior Research Fellowship to carry out research on lignin-based materials. At present, he is the scientific advisor of industry and has received research funding from different institutions and corporate entities. His passion is mentoring and developing young scientists and technical personnel.
