Abstract

Green nanotechnology can enhance the environmental sustainability of nanomaterials and is expected to fulfill growing demands for green nanomaterials. Green nanotechnology has attained remarkable attention to its application of biomedicine, agriculture, environmental modification, biosensors and electrochemical sensors, etc. Among them, algae or algal extracts can be used as reducing agents for the clean and efficient synthesis of various metal nanomaterials. This chapter systematically introduces algae-based nanomaterials and their nanostructures and summarizes the relevant applications of algae-based nanomaterials. This chapter provides valuable insights into the algae-mediated nanomaterials along with their application potential, which may accelerate the development of algae-based nanomaterials and offer new ideas for the biocircular economy.
