Green synthesis of CuO nanoparticles using Butea monosperma plant extract and evaluation for Dye degradation under UV and Sunlight

Abstract: This study focuses on the green synthesis of copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles using plant-based extracts and their potential applications in environmental remediation. Green synthesis offers an eco-friendly and sustainable approach for nanoparticle production using plant extracts as reducing and stabilizing agents. The synthesized CuO nanoparticles were characterized to confirm their crystalline structure, morphology, and functional properties. The study also investigates their catalytic performance and dye degradation efficiency, demonstrating their potential for environmental remediation applications. The results indicate that plant-mediated CuO nanoparticles possess enhanced stability, high reactivity, and promising applicability in sustainable environmental technologies.
