Models for microalgae hydrothermal liquefaction were developed from conversion of Nannochloropsis cultivated to varying biochemical composition and fatty acid content.
Selective and controllable removal of methoxy groups in liquid hot water without ring hydration from lignin model compounds. Description of reaction routes and kinetics.
A cellulose sponge with properties of superhydrophilicity and under-water superoleophobicity gives 99.94% separation efficiency in oil–water emulsion separation.
The Multiple Criteria Decision Aiding (MCDA) method allows the derivation of a model that can be used for classification of existing or new production processes for silver nanoparticles in preference-ordered classes on the basis of the principles of green chemistry.
A unified metrics toolkit has been developed to evaluate sustainability of reactions, encompassing a comprehensive and holistic range of criteria for measuring how green a reaction is, covering quantitative and qualitative criteria both upstream and downstream of the reaction itself.
Different bio-inspired liquid wettability are derived through modulation of chemistry and topography—but the chemical modulation process emerged as a superior approach for embedding desired wettability and other relevant physical properties.
Multilayer coatings with orthogonal reactive sites provide a basis for the design of responsive and patterned interfaces with independently controlled underwater superoleophobicity and oil adhesion.
This review provides a comprehensive summary of characterization, design, fabrication, and application of robust and durable liquid-repellent surfaces.
This review critically summarizes nanoporous MOFs and their hybrids/derivatives for oil–water application in the form of filtration materials, absorbents and adsorbents including their recent progress in synthesis, design, and critical challenges.
Smart materials with convertible wettability interfaces enable to sustainably treat oil spills and purify oily wastewater.
