Progress in biosynthesized of silver nanoparticles as sustainable approach for photocatalytic wastewater treatment.

Severe effects of water pollution would need to be addressed by utilizing advanced water and wastewater treatment. Due to globalization, organic dyes and emerging contaminants are significant water pollutants that can bring harm to humans and the environment. Nevertheless, conventional treatment is...
