A review on economically-feasible and environmental-friendly technologies promising a sustainable environment

In recent years, there has been an alarming increase in global problems such as pollution levels, global warming, and climatic changes. Studies have highlighted that these problems have not only intervened and contaminated abiotic resources but also biotic resources. These have become a serious thre...
