Lignin can now be efficiently and cost-effectively separated from sawdust, by using eutectic solvents. A research group has developed solvents using which 50% of the lignin from wood can be extracted ...
Sucrose and citric acid are common ingredients in a cup of tea. But as a NADES (Natural deep eutectic solvents) compound these substances in combination can kill bacteria as effectively as if they ...
Typical metallurgical extraction routes require high energy investments to process metals from constituent ores. Others, such as cyanidation of gold ore, are perceived negatively by the public due to ...
This is one of the first photos of a new class of solvent, hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (DESs). The DES is the orange phase, sitting on top of water, the transparent phase. Deep eutectic ...
Researchers from Rice University have found a new way to recycle lithium-ion batteries. As the consumption of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) for the transportation and consumer electronic sectors ...
image: The recycling of LCO is realized in a closed-loop protocol, where the dissolution/extraction of the cobalt element involves no additional precipitates, thus ...
Deep eutectic solvents used as the medium of sensitizer and emitter chromophores (left) and the photon upconverter developed (right). The sample converts low-intensity (a few mW) green light into ...
For Dr. Emmanuel Oke, a distinguished postdoctoral research fellow in the School of Chemical and Metallurgy Engineering at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, advancing sustainable ...
Young Hae Choi, a natural products chemist at Leiden University in the Netherlands, and his coworkers discovered these new solvents while studying metabolites found in cells. The researchers realized ...
