Current trends in nanocatalysis for green chemistry and its applications- a mini-review

Present times are confronting many environmental, atmo-sphere, and energy-related issues. Efficient catalysts and eco-friendly materials could provide apt solutions for such prob-lems. Technological advances, especially in nano-based advanced catalysis, have offered new opportunities. The ap-plications of nanocatalysts have drawn global attention due to their tiny size and larger surface area, providing better inter-face and expanded functioning. A significant increase in research on the size and properties of nanomaterials led to a paradigm shift in using materials with superior activity and selectivity as catalysts. Nanocatalysis being affordable and eco-friendly, is becoming a popular option. Therefore, there is a greater necessity to comprehend nanocatalysts' remarkable properties and applications. This review focuses on their explicit properties due to their size, structure, and applications to reduce environmental issues.
