“…On the other hand, the SEDCFs revealed a low affinity toward cobalt ions, revealing only 18% Co ++ removal from aqueous solution with a sorption capacity of about 0.42 mg/g. The results are in accordant with Zhang et al 67 who reported the low affinity of CFs in addition to three other natural keratin sources, toward cobalt ions, and contrary to Chakraborty et al 35 , reporting the opposite. The low affinity toward cobalt ions, in the current study, asserts the selectivity of biologically prepared SEDCFs toward different metals that could be attributed to the diverse functional groups on the SEDCFs sludge particles’ surfaces 2 , 67 .…”

“…Besides lead and mercury, contamination with copper, iron, chrome, and cobalt is dominant in most industrial and mining effluents 34 . Cumulative exposure to excessive doses of Cu ++ is usually associated with serious health complications including hepatic and renal disorders, Alzheimer’s, and lung cancers, where Fe ++ high doses adversely induce fatal liver and brain damage and/or cancer development 35 , 36 . Moreover, the adverse effects of Cr +++ and Co ++ exposure on human health are serious and widely reported 37 , 38 .…”

This study aims to investigate novel applications for chicken feather waste hydrolysate through a green, sustainable process. Accordingly, an enzymatically degraded chicken feather (EDCFs) product was used as a dual carbon and nitrogen source in the production medium of bacterial cellulose (BC). The yield maximization was attained through applying experimental designs where the optimal level of each significant variable was recorded and the yield rose 2 times. The produced BC was successfully characterized by FT-IR, XRD and SEM. On the other hand, sludge from EDCFs was used as a paper coating agent. The mechanical features of the coated papers were evaluated by bulk densities, maximum load, breaking length, tensile index, Young’s modulus, work to break and coating layer. The results showed a decrease in tensile index and an increase in elongation at break. These indicate more flexibility of the coated paper. The coated paper exhibits higher resistance to water vapor permeability and remarkable oil resistance compared to the uncoated one. Furthermore, the effectiveness of sludge residue in removing heavy metals was evaluated, and the sorption capacities were ordered as Cu ++ > Fe ++ > Cr ++ > Co ++ with high affinity (3.29 mg/g) toward Cu ++ and low (0.42 mg/g) towards Co ++ in the tested metal solution.

“…Sustainable equilibrium in/for the eco-system, is a current hot topic withdrawing the attention for utilising bio-renewability and bio-renewable products. With a commitment to utilise the ample BRR available as natures' gift, we are bound to develop new BRR-based products, based on nano-techno-craft innovations [148,149]. A quick outlook of the diversified wings where, NCs could be effectively used as an operative tool is virtually glimpsed in Figure -4.…”

The trends in the current developments for utilising the available natural resources as bio-renewable/sustainable supplies have captured the attention of scientists/industrialists in the recent past. The unlimited alarms that are interrelated with the health and environment due to the exhaustive piling up of unwanted and discarded stocks and the damages caused, are indirectly interwound with the foreseeable reduction of fossil/mineral wealth. The bio-renewable/sustainable supplies are hence, opted as platforms for reinforcement in a wide array of applicable functions. Developmental innovations leading to new approaches and perfect tools, as nano-composites through green bio-renewable/sustainable/bio-degradable supplies, submit for note-worthy advantages and are found to be associated with exceptional attributes such as rapid and cost-effective fabrication, with better thermal/mechanical stability, besides easy portability/reusability. It would be worthy mentioning that nano-composites from structured bio-degradable resources find their utility in a broad spectrum of fragments such as food preservation/packaging, agriculture/bio-sensors, bio-medical, optical/energy-storage, water-treatment/marine, automotive/automation, construction, flame-retardant/coating, and many more. Here in this chapter, we comprehensively compare the recent advancement/development of varied applications of nano-composites from bio-renewable/non-bio-renewable reserves. In conclusion, the solutions to the debatable question, and the potential developmental break-ups with new-openings for the naturally agglomerated nano-composites are reflected briefly.

“…As proof of the importance of these studies, many papers about metal sorption were published further in [ 40 , 41 , 42 ] about potentially toxic cations removal. Once again, the application of these materials is not limited to metal ions, but it is also efficient with organic compounds.…”

In just a few years, chemists have significantly changed their approach to the synthesis of organic molecules in the laboratory and industry. Researchers are encouraged to approach “greener” reagents, solvents, and methodologies, to go hand in hand with the world’s environmental matter, such as water, soil, and air pollution. The employment of plant and animal derivates that are commonly regarded as “waste material” has paved the way for the development of new green strategies. In this review, the most important innovations in this field have been highlighted, paying due attention to those materials that have played a crucial role in organic reactions: wool, silk, and feather. Moreover, we decided to focus on the other most important supports and catalysts in green syntheses, such as proteins and their derivates. Different materials have shown prominent activity in the adsorption of metals and organic dyes, which has constituted a relevant scope in the last two decades. We intend to furnish a complete screening of the application given to these materials and contribute to their potential future utilization.
