Title Pharmaceutical pollution fingerprinting and waterbodies remediation using waste-derived carbon dots as sustainable advanced nanomaterials
Year 2023
Published
Abstract The conversion of biomass waste into high-value nanomaterials such as carbon dots might represent a great advancement towards a circular economy system. Biomass wastes are an excellent choice as carbon precursors because of their wide availability, abundance, chemical composition, and eco-friendly nature. Moreover, their use as a raw material might decrease the total cost of the synthesis processes and reduce the environmental impacts. In addition, the complex composition of biomass leads to carbon dots with abundant functional groups, which in turn enhances water dispersibility and photoluminescence properties. In this manner, the effective transformation of biomass wastes into carbon dots reduces environmental pollution through the inadequate management of waste while producing carbon dots with enhanced performances. Therefore, this review describes biomass wastes as potential candidates for the synthesis of carbon dots through different synthesis methods. In addition, we have analyzed the great potential of biomass-derived carbon dots (CDs) for the degradation and detection of emerging pharmaceutical pollutants by promoting a circular economy approach. Finally, we identified current challenges to propose possible research directions for the large-scale and sustainable synthesis of high-quality biomass-derived CDs.
