Advances in Green Materials Engineering

This book provides a comprehensive overview of green materials science and engineering, covering sustainable approaches for energy production and storage, including fundamental concepts and eco-friendly dye-sensitized solar cells with emphasis on transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and their polymeric composites. It examines green synthesis routes for photocatalytic materials and their environmental applications, along with advances in corrosion protection of metals and alloys using sustainable materials. The content further explores graphene quantum dots (GQDs) in sustainable engineering, environmentally responsible processing of phosphogypsum, and innovative materials for water purification and remediation such as engineered biohydrogels, and biopolymer-based systems incorporating water hyacinth. Additional topics include green materials for wound healing.
