Green synthesis of molybdenum-based nanoparticles and their applications in energy conversion and storage: A review

Plant-Based Bimetallic Silver-Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles: A Comprehensive Perspective of Synthesis, Biomedical Applications, and Future Trends

“…The most often exploited chemical and physical approach for the synthesis of BNPs is the reduction of compounds in water-based solutions; however, these synthesis procedures are labour-intensive and expensive and frequently need hazardous/toxic substances. In this aspect, a procedure that is safer, greener, and more environmentally friendly is critical [ 40 , 41 ]. Bacteria, fungus, yeast, and plants are biological categories that have showed tremendous potential as bioreactors in the synthesis of NPs.…”

Environmentally benign synthesis and characterization of Bi2O3‐Sb2O3 nanocomposite: Investigation of its potential as electrode material in energy storage and generation applications

“…38,39 The domains of energy conversion and storage are paying more and more attention to molybdenum-based nanoparticles (Mo-NPs) due to their exceptional physicochemical and electrochemical properties. 40,41 [42][43][44] Herein, this study emphasizes addressing the major issue regarding the sustainability of the environment by synthesizing MO-based nanocomposite material through the green route by using plant leaf extract and then studying the role of the synthesized material as an electrode in energy generation as well as energy storage procedures. Although various chemical as well as physical methods are available for synthesizing nanoparticles, the toxicity and complexity-related disadvantages associated with them have encouraged scientists to shift to the green synthesis route, which utilizes phytoconstituents of biological entities as reducing and stabilizing agents in the synthesis of nanoparticles.…”

“…Due to their structural flexibility, high stability, and ease of manufacture, bismuth‐based nanocomposites, or BiNCs, have been suggested as promising materials for applications in a variety of sectors, including electrochemistry and optoelectronics 38,39 . The domains of energy conversion and storage are paying more and more attention to molybdenum‐based nanoparticles (Mo‐NPs) due to their exceptional physicochemical and electrochemical properties 40,41 . As water oxidation electrocatalysts, Co 3 O 4 , Co 9 S 8 , and their heterostructure Co 3 O 4 /Co 9 S 8 were synthesized and assessed.…”

Kinetic study of combined steam and CO2 reforming of methane over Ni-Sr/MgO-ZrO2 catalyst

“…Ni has been chosen above other transition metals for CSCRM reformation because of its catalytic performance, which is akin to that of noble metal. Even though Ni is frequently utilized in the reforming process, coke deposition and metal sintering are the two main downsides that might cause the catalyst to become inactive [15], [16]. In order to eviscerate catalyst deactivation, promoters (as pre-treatment statregy) mixed with oxides as support, improved catalyst synthesis technique and bimetallic systems are employed.…”
