“…Algae are readily available and eco-friendly, with rich source of metabolites and optimum metal uptake capacity for use as reducing agents for nanoparticle synthesis ( Abideen et al., 2022 ; Hasnain et al., 2022 ). In addition, algae accumulate higher lipids and potential source of biodiesel using saline lands and brackish water.…”

“…Growing food scarcity, declining land and water resources, and insufficient investment in sustainable agriculture are major factors limiting agricultural production. Climate change also adversely affects crop yields and is responsible for the deterioration of cultivable land and freshwater resources ( Zulfiqar and Hancock, 2020 ; Hasnain et al., 2022 ). Therefore, the agriculture sector must focus on satisfying the tradeoff between the increasing demand for food crops and enhanced resource constraints by efficiently using land and water resources.…”

The ever-increasing demand for agricultural food products, medicine, and other commercial sectors requires new technologies for agricultural practices and promoting the optimum utilization of natural resources. The application of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) enhance the biomass production and yield of food crop while resisting harmful environmental stresses. Bio-mediated synthesis of ENMs are time-efficient, low-cost, environmentally friendly, green technology. The precedence of using a bio-mediated route over conventional precursors for ENM synthesis is non-toxic and readily available. It possesses many active agents that can facilitate the reduction and stabilization processes during nanoparticle formation. This review presents recent developments in bio-mediated ENMs and green synthesis techniques using plants, algae, fungi, and bacteria, including significant contributions to identifying major ENM applications in agriculture with potential impacts on sustainability, such as the role of different ENMs in agriculture and their impact on different plant species. The review also covers the advantages and disadvantages of different ENMs and potential future research in this field.

“…Carbohydrates, total protein, chlorophyll and lipids were quantified. Dry algae (10 mg) were used for quantification of carbohydrates by following the protocol mention in [12], while 1 mg dry algae were used to quantify total protein followed by that in [2]. Chlorophyll estimation using methanol was performed on 0.5 g of algae [13].…”

“…On the other hand, the biofuels generated from algae are less hazardous to the environment because of their lessened dependency on land and freshwater resources. Due to their high growth rate, algae possess high productivity in short harvesting cycles, usually 1-10 days, as compared to other feedstocks (two times a year) [2]. Moreover, they have the capacity to sequester carbon 10 to 50 times higher than other land plants.…”

Biofuel generation from algae can be increased by using nanotechnology. The present study emphasizes the use of silver nanoparticles on algae for algal fuel generation along with the impact of nanoparticles on biomass, metabolites and lipid profile. Silver ion amassing was enhanced in each algal species, but maximum phytoremediation was found in Ulothrix sp. Carbohydrates increased 3.2 times in Oedogonium sp., 3.3 times in Ulothrix sp., 3 times in Cladophora sp. and 2.7 times in Spirogyra sp. Additionally, the application of nanoparticles enhanced by 2 times the production of proteins in Oedogonium sp., 1.9 times in Ulothrix sp., 1.9 times in Cladophora sp. and 2.1 times in Spirogyra sp. Finally, the total lipid yield increased 60% DCW in Oedogonium sp., 56% DCW in Ulothrix sp., 58% DCW in Cladophora sp. and 63% DCW in Spirogyra sp. using 0.08 mg/L silver nanoparticle application. The lipids and fatty acid fractions from algae containing high concentrations of C16:0, C18:0 and C18:1 enhanced with silver nanoparticle addition were comparable with EN 14214 and ASTM 6751 biodiesel standards. This study indicates that the uptake of AgNPs can enhance the production of fatty acids and be commercialized as sustainable biodiesel. The algae Ulothrix sp. is evidenced as the best competent feedstock for biofuel production.
