dc.description.abstract Nanoparticles are generally defined as particles having one or more dimensions of sizes ranging from 1 to 100 nm. Nanoparticles can be classified into organic, inorganic and carbon-based materials. In comparison with conventional micro-size particles, nanoparticles show enhanced properties, such as high reactivity, strength, surface area, sensitivity and stability due to their nanosize. Various preparation methods, viz. physical, chemical and mechanical, have been employed to synthesize different nanoparticles. This chapter presents an overview on nanoparticles and their types, properties, synthesis methods and application in bioconversion of biomass into biofuels. en_US
