| Abstract |
In the pursuit of sustainable technological advancements, carbon dots derived from biowastes are being explored as promising novel and eco-friendly resources. Biowastes, often overlooked reservoirs of valuable materials, serve as a source for carbon dot extraction, aligning with the principles of circular economy and waste valorization. This review presents the green synthesis methods, properties, and sustainable applications of biowastederived carbon dots with unique optical, electronic, sensing, imaging, and catalysis properties. Various characterization techniques are employed to elucidate the structural, optical, and chemical properties of the synthesized carbon dots, offering insights into their potential as versatile nanomaterials. Overall, this study contributes to the ongoing discourse on sustainable materials and underscores the potential of carbon dots from biowastes as catalysts for bright and eco-conscious innovations, opening the way for a greener and more sustainable future in materials science and technology. |
