Abstract
It is well known that current fossil fuel usage is unsustainable and associated with greenhouse gas production. The amount of the world's primary energy supply provided by renewable energy technologies is required urgently. Therefore, the relevant technologies such as hydrogen fuel, solar cell, biotechnology based on nanotechnology and the relevant patents for exploiting the future energy for the friendly environment are reviewed. At the same time, it is pointed out that the significantly feasible world's eco-energy for the foreseeable future should not only be realized, but also methods for using the current energy and their by-products more efficiently should be found correspondingly to ensure the minimal environmental impact.
Keywords: Green nanotechnology, future energy, fuel cell, solar cell, biotechnology, biofuel, HYDROGEN FUEL, cracking fossil, natural gas, ambient air, Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cells, Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells, Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, Alkaline Fuel Cells, Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells, Biomimetic Technology, Mimicking Photosynthesis

Advances in Vanadium and Titanium Resources for High-performance Materials via Nanostructuring and Nanoengineering (updated BMS-NANOTEC-2023-HT-31)
Vanadium and titanium-based materials are ideal candidates for structural and functional materials in aerospace, biomedical engineering, optics, catalysis, energy storage and conversion etc. Vanadium/titanium-based alloys, compounds and materials have a large family with different chemical compositions, dimensions, structures/morphologies, and chemical/physical/mechanical properties, which provides huge opportunities for the development of emerging ...read more
Green Nanotechnology and Nanomaterials for a Sustainable Environment
Green nanotechnology (GN) might wind up being the most efficient platform for achieving the goals of the 2030 Agenda. The goal of GN is to create goods and procedures that are secure, energy-efficient, waste-free, and emit fewer greenhouse gases. Such goods and procedures use renewable resources, and/or their environmental impact ...read more
Nano-coatings and Nanoscale Composites for Hazardous Environments
Automobile, defence, and aerospace sectors need lightweight material for fuel efficiency and lower emissions. Often these materials are added with nanoscale reinforcements or have to be coated with nanomaterials to improve the scratch resistance, self-healing behaviour and corrosion and wear resistance and are all much needed for hazardous environments without ...read more
