Nano-Fertilizer Synthesis and Types?discusses the production of a variety of nano-fertilizers, including biological, chemical, and mechanical types. Nano-fertilizers aid in nutrition control by increasing nutrient consumption efficiency as nutrients are bonded to nano-dimensional adsorbents, which in turn release nutrients considerably more slowly than traditional fertilizers. As the nano-fertilizer sector advances, one approach is to concentrate on macro elements (N, P, K), as switching to nano-fertilizers may result in significant environmental benefits by replacing the majority of these nutrients. Furthermore, the biosynthesis of nanomaterials employing bacteria, algae, yeast, fungus, actinomycetes, and plants has opened up a new field of study for the creation of inorganic nanoparticles as environmentally benign fertilizers. Because of the several-fold increase in the surface-to-volume ratio of nano-forms of nutrients, and their appropriateness for foliar application, where environmental losses are further decreased, nano-fertilizers may achieve higher efficiency. However, before nano-fertilizers are manufactured and commercialized, further research should be conducted to assess their impact for both humans and the environment. While there are some nano-fertilizer products available, the nano-fertilizer production industry still requires additional public and private sector support and development. Nano-Fertilizers Synthesis and Types presents the latest information, highlights the benefits and impacts of each, and provides a single-volume resource to help effectively and efficiently identify options based on use-case. Exploring the topic from the various mechanistic types to the relevant regulatory, safety, and economic aspects, this volume will be appropriate for those working with and researching new nano-fertilizers. Guides in the identification of appropriate nano-fertilizer options based on use-case Addresses both target plant and environmental considerations Includes economic and regulatory insights

Nanofertilizer Delivery, Effects and Application Methods explores the science of nutrient nanoformulation, a potential tool toward sustainable and climate-sensitive crops.Wide-spread use of chemical fertilizers has been shown to causes significant damage to soil structure, mineral cycles, soil microbial flora, plants, and creating human health risk both immediately and for future generations. Through methods that include targeted distribution, and gradual or controlled release, nanostructured fertilizers can improve nutrient usage efficiency. According to recent studies, through environmental cues and biological demands, nano-fertilizers can respond to specifical challenges, and boost agricultural yield by increasing the rate of seed germination, seedling growth, photosynthetic activity, nitrogen metabolism, and carbohydrate and protein synthesis. Nanofertilizer Delivery, Effects and Application Methods discusses the potential agricultural benefits of nanofertilizers from coverage of their formulation and delivery, to application, plant uptake, translocation, and destiny, and their overall effect on plant physiology and metabolism. This book is ideal for researchers in industry and academia. Highlights types, uses, and advantages of a wide range and variety of nanofertilizers on agri-food sectors Looks at current practices, their challenges, and future development opportunities Includes methods and applications for real-world insights

Wet and dry production methods are distinguished depending on whether the synthesis process involves a solvent or not. The majority of dry methods use top-down processes while the majority of wet methods are bottom-up. Numerous scalable wet-based approaches with minimal capital cost are described. Ability to control growth rate, surface composition, and shape are important advantages for wet-based synthesis. However, low yield and large solvent requirement are the main disadvantages. Temperature and pressure are key experimental parameters, allowing control of the final product attributes. Sonochemistry, supercritical fluid, solvothermal, microwave, electrically induced synthesis, spray pyrolysis, emulsion, sol–gel, template synthesis have been used to produce NPs. Other potential low cost and scalable techniques are also described. The majority of these techniques are still at the bench or pilot scale stages. Scalability issues could be addressed using a continuous flow reactor. The development of green processes (bio-based precursors, reduced organic solvent, and toxic chemicals) is important for the sustainability of NP technology. Quality control is a major weakness of current NP productions processes. Several purification and nanometrology methods have also been described.

Dry methods offer several advantages including low financial and environmental impacts. However, the relatively large particle size distribution combined with difficulty in surface functionalization reduces the scope of their applications. The majority of dry methods are based on mechanical and gas-phase processes. Other techniques including cryomelting, laser pyrolysis, reactive plasma arc evaporation, microwave plasma process, epitaxial growth, rapid quenching solidification, ion-beam sputtering, self-propagating high-temperature synthesis, and hydrogen reduction are also discussed. Ball milling is a cost-effective process although it gives rise to a significant number of defects. Improved NP quality over large composition and size ranges is obtained using mechanochemical (also referred to as mechanosynthesis) methods. Inert-gas condensation, combustion flame synthesis, chemical vapor condensation, and aerosol spray pyrolysis allow continuous production of high-quality and cost-effective NPs. Thermal spray and chemical vapor deposition techniques allow directly integrated NP synthesis. Higher quality NPs are obtained using physical vapor synthesis although the cost is relatively higher.

Document from the year 2017 in the subject Chemistry - Bio-chemistry, Mansoura University, language: English, abstract: Forty-two medicinal plants were collected depending on their availability on Egypt. These plant were extracted and screened for their activity towards green synthesis of AgNPs. A new modified method was used in order to screen large number of extracts in short time (high throughput screening). In this method, the synthesized nanoparticles were evaluated in using 96-well plate which is transparent to facilitate the color monitoring and easy to be read spectrophotometrically using microplate reader. The green synthesis activity by the different plant extracts was monitored and evaluated by color change and UV-Vis absorption at time intervals. Out of these 42 plants, only 3 plants viz.,Pyllanthusemblicafruits, Psidium guajava leaves and Lawsoniainermisleaves, showed high AgNPs synthetic activity. The most active plant extracts were further partitioned with ethyl acetate. The results showed that the EtOAc fraction of the three active plants showed superior AgNPs green synthesis over their remaining aqueous. Thus, chromatographic columns were used to isolate the active compounds from the EtOAc fraction of each plant. Metal nanoparticles synthesis is a leading topic of research in modern material science owing to their distinctive potential applications in the field of electronic, optoelectronic, information storage and Health care. Among the all noble metal nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles are one the main products in the field of nanotechnology which has acquired limitless attention due to their unique properties such as chemical stability, good conductivity, catalytic and most important antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal activities. Nevertheless, there is still need for economic commercially viable as well as environmentally clean synthesis route to synthesize the silver nanoparticles.
