Abstract: Nuclear chemistry has emerged as a vital field in addressing contemporary environmental challenges. Its applications range from radioactive tracers for monitoring pollution and groundwater movement to the treatment of hazardous waste through radiation-induced processes. This review highlights the role of nuclear chemistry in environmental remediation, focusing on techniques such as radiolysis for degrading pollutants, isotopic methods for tracking environmental changes, and the safe disposal of nuclear waste. Advances in green nuclear technologies, including the use of radiation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and clean contaminated ecosystems, are also discussed. By leveraging the principles of nuclear chemistry, innovative solutions for sustainable environmental management and mitigation of human impact can be achieved.
Keywords: Nuclear chemistry; Environmental monitoring; Radioactive tracers; Radiolysis; Sustainability; Pollution control.
