Abstract:

Solvents are widely recognized to be of great environmental concern. The reduction of their use is one of the most important aims of green chemistry. In addition to this, the appropriate selection of solvent for a process can greatly improve the sustainability of a chemical production process. There has also been extensive research into the application of so-called green solvents, such as ionic liquids and supercritical fluids. However, most examples of solvent technologies that give improved sustainability come from the application of well-established solvents. It is also apparent that the su

Abstract:

Organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) has been considered as one of the key technologies to improve the sustainability of separation processes. Recently, apart from enhancing the membrane performance, greener fabricate on of OSN membranes has been set as a strategic objective. Considerable efforts have been made aiming to improve the sustainability in membrane fabrication, such as replacing membrane materials with biodegradable alternatives, substituting toxic solvents with greener solvents, and minimizing waste generation with material recycling. In addition, new promising fabrication and post

Abstract:

Solvents come in many shapes and types. Looking for solvents for a specific application can be hard, and looking for green alternatives for currently used nonbenign solvents can be even harder. We describe a new methodology for solvent selection and substitution, by applying Artificial Intelligence (AI) software to cluster a database of solvents based on their physical properties. The solvents are processed by a neural network, the Self-organizing Map of Kohonen, which results in a 2D map of clusters. The resulting clusters are validated both chemically and statistically and are presented in u

Abstract:

The world will face a significant protein demand in the next few decades, and due to the environmental concerns linked to animal protein, new sustainable protein sources must be found. In this regard, microalgae stand as an outstanding high-quality protein source. However, different steps are needed to separate the proteins from the microalgae biomass and other biocompounds. The protein recovery from the disrupted biomass is usually the bottleneck of the process, and it typically employs organic solvents or harsh conditions, which are both detrimental to protein stability and planet health.

Abstract:

The use of non-edible vegetable oils to produce oleochemicals has been attracting more attention in recent years. Cardoon seed oil, derived from the Cynara C. plant, growing in marginal and contaminated lands, represents a non-edible alternative to soybean oil to obtain plasticizers through epoxidation reaction. The use of hydrogen peroxide as oxidant and in the presence of a heterogeneous catalyst allows overcoming the limits of epoxidation with peracids. γ-alumina has been shown to have an active catalyst epoxidation reaction with hydrogen peroxide, mainly using acetonitrile as solvent.

Abstract:

Solubility is the property of a substance to dissolve in or form a homogeneous mixture with another substance. One of the most common problems associated with making a solution is poor solubility. There are many drugs that are sparingly soluble or insoluble in water, and lansoprazole is one of them. Aqueous solubility of lansoprazole is 0.05 mg/ml at room temperature. The current study aims to improve lansoprazole solubility using a mixed hydrotropy method. The purpose of the mixed hydrotropic solubilization approach is to increase the solubility of weakly water-soluble drugs in hydrotropic ag

Abstract:

Natural hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (NaHDESs), composed of natural components like menthol, fatty acids, and organic acids, are sustainable alternatives to conventional solvents for extracting carotenoids from agro-industrial by-products. This study assessed the performance of nine NaHDESs for extracting β-carotene from pumpkin peels, identifying DL-menthol/lactic acid (1:2) as the most effective solvent, achieving a yield of 0.823 ± 0.019 mg/mL of β-carotene, corresponding to 93.95% of the yield obtained using acetone.

Abstract:

Flavonoids have been broadly employed in diverse areas as they have the antioxidant, anticancer and hypoglycemic effects. Therefore, it is of great significance to extract high-purity and high-quality flavonoids. As the concept of green chemistry and sustainable development has been paid increasing attention and promotion. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have been proposed as a green solvent and used to replaced traditional extraction solvents for extracting flavonoids. Compared with conventional solvents, DESs have some benefits, including lower cost, sustainability, low toxicity and biodegrada

All solid-state solar cells based on organometal trihalide perovskite absorbers have already achieved distinguished power conversion efficiency (PCE) to 26.1% and further improvements are expected up to 27%. Now, the research on perovskite solar cells (PSCs) has been moving toward commercialization. To facilitate commercialization of these great solar cells, some technical issues such as long-term stability, large scale fabrication process, Pb-related hazardous materials, and environmentally-burdened toxic solvent-based process need to be solved.
