Green synthesis of Ag-NPs using Senegalia laeta (formerly known as Acacia laeta) has shown promise for wastewater treatment, it is not necessarily "better" than other green synthesis methods or established chemical methods, but it offers a more sustainable and environmentally friendly approach. The effectiveness depends on factors like the specific pollutants, concentration of Ag-NPs, and the overall treatment process.
Green-synthesized Ag-NPs from Acacia laeta offer eco-friendly, effective wastewater treatment through pollutant degradation and antimicrobial action, but require careful use to avoid microbial harm.
Green synthesised Ag-NPs from Acacia laeta is ecofriendly than that of chemically synthesised one.
In addition Ag-NPs have a high surface area that enables adsorption of heavy metals, organic dyes, and microbial contaminants from industrial waste water.
Despite being green-synthesized, excessive silver in treated water can still be toxic to aquatic life if not managed properly.
