Abstract Pharmaceutical substances, a pill for every ill, have become sweet poison by remarkably boosting the global economy as well human and animal wellness at same time causing environmental pollution, especially in aquatic ecosystem, this has led to fatal diminution availability of clean water upsurge insecurity. Notably, traditional techniques materials been employed up pharmaceutical pollutants (PP) from bodies; however, they come under controversy because require hazardous chemicals cannot fully mineralize stubborn PPs. Interestingly, photocatalytic degradation approach employing eco‐benign biosynthesized nanoparticles (BNP) is an avant‐garde practice shown be eco‐sustainable method that can PPs into harmless molecules. Thus, study critically explores application BNPs The review revealed greatest efficacy was greater than 80% most cases, least amount required around 10 min. In addition, oxygen‐containing functional groups found biological sources used fabrication contributed supremacy • OH O 2 radicals operation. Also, kinetic data modeled pseudo‐first order, indicates more involved operation . Moreso, excellent reusability potential (>5 rounds) while maintaining inherent structural integrity. Techno‐economic analysis are cost‐effective, costing about $1.5/1,000,000 mL wastewater on average.
