The Introduction of the Special Issue 1. Waste management & environmental protection: introduce the waste for their recycling & its reuses via green synthesis or and green chemistry approaches. In this regard we can protect our environment from various hazardous effects. 2. Waste water: A recycling & reclamation approach: wastewater are the discharge released from the various industries makes water polluted and leading to the disorder in living organisms along with huge side effects. Our initial aim is to protect our environment by recycling it using different water treatment techniques & reusing the recycled wastewater in various domain such as industries, air-conditions, agricultural domains for irrigation. 3. Biopolymers: An environmental friendly material: physical & chemical alteration of natural biopolymers and finding it's application towards various domains such as wastewater treatment, biosorbents, metal-ion sorbent, adhesives, controlled & targeted drug release etc. 4. Super-absorbent polymers for bioremediation: Synthesis of three dimensional hydrophilic polymeric chain via amalgam of grafting and cross-linking techniques using water loving monomers to build water unsolvable materials is called superabsorbent polymers (SAP). These having high molecular mass and a tendency to soak-up liquid hundred times more than their actual mass. SAP are applied as fluid absorbent, e.g. in disposable hygiene products which include diapers for babies, and feminine. Another use of SAP, applied tremendously is exclusion of metal ions from any water/wastewater sample due to presence of -COOH group with extremely elevated ion substitution ability for soluble metal ions. 5.Wastewater treatment using biopolymers: wastewater can be treated with high polymeric weight material which are bioderadable, non-toxic & cheap too. The phenomenon occurs by forming a bridging network between colloidal particles & synthesized biopolymers called as "flocculation". This would be safer way to treat the wastewater because the technique doesn't produce any hazardous byproducts.
