Abstract
The aim of this chapter is to describe recent advances of the metal oxides nanoparticles biosynthesis made by plants, algae, fungi, bacteria, and viruses. The first section deals with green and sustainable methods for iron oxide nanoparticle synthesis, including mechanisms and physicochemical characterizations. In the second, a discussion about iron oxide nanoparticles produced by green synthesis and their application in contaminated water is made. The third section includes the usage of gamma rays for physicochemical modifications and production of green nanoparticles. Finally, trends, challenges, and risk management of the green nanoparticles are discussed.
