Abstract
Nanosized particles in the size range 1–100 nm are emerging as an alternative to conventional particles in technological applications. This is due to their small size, which presents them with a great surface area to volume ratio. This unique property of nanomaterials along with the capacity to tune important physicochemical characteristics, such as molecular detection capabilities, based on size and morphology has increased their utilization for novel and improved gas sensor development in various fields of application. Most gases, above their exposure threshold concentration level, can be toxic to humans and the environment.
The improved gas detection ability of nanomaterials along with the potential to synthesize them via green methods promotes their use in sustainable sensor development for noxious gas detection. The present chapter discusses examples of nanomaterials that are used to fabricate sensors with the ability to detect toxic gases and biological molecules. In addition, the drawbacks of nanomaterials as sensors, and the efficiency and limitations of green synthesized nanomaterials for sustainable toxic gas detection and biosensing applications are also discussed.
