This century is struggling with the issue of environment friendly management of the pollutants  which are contaminating the environment. One of an ecofriendly and economically feasible method is the bioremediation of pollutants using bio nanoparticles. Nanobioremediation is a highly studied and explored area of remediation of contaminants using nanotechnology. Nanoparticles used for bioremediation are biologically synthesized from plant extracts, fungi and bacteria. These biogenic nanoparticles when applied to environmental contaminants had shown very promising results. Based on the various studies the bioremediation of pollutants using biosynthetic nanoparticles is emerging as a very promising and sustainable method of environment cleanup. This review focuses on the synthesis of bio-nanoparticles and their use in cleaning the environment.
