Abstract

See full text

A method of synthesizing nanostructures from agro-waste can include providing powdered Phoenix dactylifera agro-waste; mixing the powdered Phoenix dactylifera agro-waste with a liquid to provide a Phoenix dactylifera agro-waste solution; heating the Phoenix dactylifera agro-waste solution in a hydrothermal autoclave to provide a heated solution; and centrifuging the heated solution to provide a liquid fraction and a solid fraction. The liquid fraction can include a first plurality of nanostructures. The first plurality of nanostructures can include C-dots. The solid fraction can be further processed to provide a second plurality of nanostructures and a third plurality of nanostructures. The second plurality of nanostructures can include lignin nanoparticles. The third plurality of nanostructures can include cellulose nanocrystals. The nanostructures can be used in various applications, such as three dimensional cell culture, UV-protecting textiles, and bio-imaging.
