Nanotechnology is a rapidly growing field globally as a versatile technology in various disciplines. From all nano-materials, titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO₂ NPs) are considered the one of the most used in the day to day commodity products. These are produced by diverse physical, chemical, and biological approaches. Particularly, green synthesis has come to light as an ecofriendly, economically efficient and nontoxic technique. TiO₂ NPs have exhibited enormous potential in agriculture, particularly in ameliorating plant growth under stress (biotic and abiotic) depending upon size, concentration, and exposure time. Besides agricultural use, they find application in nanopertilziers, wastewater treatment for heavy metal scavenging and in antibacterial applications. However, the possibility of their genotoxic potential due to mal‐handling and exposure cannot altogether be ruled out. These double-edged findings call for further studies. This review presents and discusses the state of the art literature findings on the synthesis, functionalization, and possible environmental and human health risks associated with TiO2 NPs, notably eco-compatible production and safe disposal.
