Abstract

In current times, all major discoveries are believed to occur at the intersections of various fields of science. In such a manner, perhaps the main creative region joining material science, biology and medication is the utilization of microwave advances. In such a way, the motivation behind this work was to explain the useful conceivable outcomes of diagnostic, analytical, synthetic and therapeutic microwave advancements. The related exploration and uses of microwave (MW) science are the arising methodologies of modern energy-based green science, on a nuclear and atomic self-aggregating level. As microwaves develop the synthetic response, they have the potential to greatly impact the chemical reaction. This technology has advanced its utilization in the field of research technology, chemical synthesis, diagnostic chemistry, wastewater treatment, and material science. This article cumulates the various available microwave synthesizers in the market with their pros and cons alongside their wide applications.
