Researchers from the University of South Australia (UniSA) have found that nanoparticles synthesized from green mango peel extract and iron chloride could aid in remediating oil sludge in contaminated soil...“Plant extracts are increasingly used to create nanomaterials,” UniSA's Biruck Desalegn, PhD, said in a statement. “In this study, we experimented with mango peel to create zero valent iron nanoparticles which have the ability to breakdown various organic contaminants.
