Abstract: | Abstract The increased local and global concern, for alarming environmental pollution, offers incentives to explore new green and clean materials and methods for safeguarding the environment. The generation of benign alternate routes for any step in chemical processes, is the need for today and tomorrow. In the present work, humic acid (HA) has been extracted from a green source, “dry cow dung powder”, using simple, cost effective, and eco-friendly methods. HA has been extracted, isolated, and characterized by employing different spectroscopic methods. The process investigated herein imparts a boost to “Green Chemistry”, a promising solution to many global environmental problems. |
