Green Synthesis and Characterization of Silver Nanoparticles Using Rice (Oryza sativa) and Spent Coffee (Coffea robusta) Grounds from Agricultural Waste
AgNPs were obtained by green synthesis using agricultural waste such as spent coffee grounds and rice husks as natural reducing and stabilising agents. This study highlights the innovative use of biomolecule-rich materials to generate stable AgNPs with strong antibacterial properties and provides a sustainable basis for further development of nanotechnological applications.
