Biopolymers are becoming an increasingly important area of research as traditional chemical feedstocks run low and concerns about environmental impacts increase. One area of particular interest is their use for more sustainable development of metal nanoparticles. Biopolymer-Based Metal Nanoparticle Chemistry for Sustainability Applications, Volume 2 reviews key uses of biopolymers and biopolymer-based metal nanoparticles for a range of key sustainability-focused applications. After providing contextual examples of applications across the fields of food science, biomedicine and biochemistry, the book goes on to explore further sustainability-focused applications of Biopolymer-Based Metal Nanoparticles in such important areas as catalysis, environmental science, biosensing, and energy. - Provides an overview of biopolymer-based metal nanoparticles for a wide range of applications - Provides technological details on the synthesis of natural polymer-based metal nanoparticles - Explores the role of biopolymer-based metal nanoparticles for more sustainable catalytic processes

Dr. Mahmoud Nasrollahzadeh is an Associate Professor and the Director of the Nanobiotechnology Laboratory at the University of Qom. Mahmoud's research explores the synthesis of biowaste and nature-inspired (nano)materials and advanced functional porous materials for environmental applications, catalysis, and energy conversion. He received several national awards from his country including the 2021 Abu Rayhan Prize from the Iranian Academy of Sciences for the Top Young Chemist of Iran and the 2020 Distinguished Researcher Award from the Iran Science Elites Federation. In 2023, He visited Technische Universität Dresden (TUD), Germany, as a guest researcher under a Senior Research Fellowship to carry out research on lignin-based materials. At present, he is the scientific advisor of industry and has received research funding from different institutions and corporate entities. His passion is mentoring and developing young scientists and technical personnel.
