Abstract
In current scenario, one of the most significant sources of pollution is textile dye and increasing day by day. Many issues confront global agriculture, including the sustainable use and protection of natural resources, climate change, urbanisation, and pollution caused by agrochemicals (e.g., fertilisers and pesticides). These businesses release a wide range of chemicals, dyes, acids and alkalis, as well as other toxic compounds such as heavy metals, all of which are known to be poisonous. The physico-chemical parameters of dye manufacturing effluents, as well as their impact on seed germination and plant growth, were studied. Nanotechnology is also being studied as a potential solution to the worldwide food crisis. The use of plants to remove toxins from the soil, such as heavy metals, trace elements, organic chemicals, and radioactive substances. It also explains how nanoparticles are becoming a popular method of desalination and it also faces the environmental challenges for the protection of plants.
