Sustainable processes by completing biocatalytic conversions and recovering products completely.
Biocatalysis in flow improves space time yields and enables straightforward downstream processing. The underlying principles of monolithic flow reactors and their application in mono- and bi-phasic biocatalytic systems are discussed.
Publication of the E Factor drew attention to the problem of waste in chemicals manufacture. Thirty yeas later it is abundantly clear that waste is the underlying cause of global environmental problems, from climate change to plastic pollution.
We report a thermally accelerated, air–tolerant Mizoroki–Heck reaction catalyzed by a palladium milling ball. This direct mechanocatalytic approach features facile catalyst recycling, high C(sp2)–I bond selectivity, and operational simplicity.
Photovoltaic installations will likely become one of the major power sources in the 21st century and we need photovoltaic modules to operate reliably. The map shows the average photovoltaic fleet age in Europe.
