Topics in Current Chemistry, 2018
Chemical reactions and many of the procedures of separation and purification employed in industry, research or chemistry teaching utilize solvents massively. In the last decades, with the birth of Green Chemistry, concerns about the employment of solvents and the effects on human health, as well as its environmental impacts and its dependence on non ...

Green solvents for green technologies
Journal of Biotechnology, 2018Green chemistry is a prevention approach to designing products and processes that minimize the use of materials hazardous to human health and environment. Biocatalysis, green solvents, reducing energy consumption by using alternative energy sources (e.g. microwave, ultrasound) are most important tools of green chemistry.

Green solvents for green technologies
Journal of Biotechnology, 2017In many industrial processes large quantities of volatile and flammable organic solvents are used in various reaction systems and separation steps defining a major part of the environmental and economic performance of a process. Accordingly, a growing area of research in the development of green technologies is devoted to designing new, environmentally-

Some aspects of green solvents [PDF]
Comptes Rendus Chimie, 2018 Chemical solvents constitute around 80% of the total volume of chemicals used in many important chemical processes, especially fine chemical manufacturing. Unfortunately, these solvents are often volatile organic compounds from petroleum resource bearing

Green chemistry - green solvent [PDF]
, 2022 According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) definition, green chemistry is defined as chemistry that is aimed at designing products and processes that minimize or eliminate the use and production of harmful substances. The green chemistry program developed alternatives to harmful organic solvents – the so-called green solvents. The most

Green solvents for membrane fabrication
2023Description of membrane fabrication in a more sustainable way. Nowadays, the preparation of membranes still requires the use of aprotic solvents such as N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-Dimethylacetamide (DMA) and Nmethyl- 2-pyrrolidone (NMP) that are considered as toxic and added to the candidate list as substances of very high concern (SVHC) that may

Green Solvent: Green Shadow on Chemical Synthesis
Current Organic Synthesis, 2020The natural beauty and purity of our planet has been contaminated deeply due to human selfish activities such as pollution, improper waste management, and various industrial and commercial discharges of untreated toxic by-products into the lap of nature.

Practical Approaches to Green Solvents
Science, 2002Solvents are widely used in commercial manufacturing and service industries. Despite abundant precaution, they inevitably contaminate our air, land, and water because they are difficult to contain and recycle. Researchers have therefore focused on reducing solvent use through the development of solvent-free processes and more efficient recycling ...

Green Chemistry and Green Solvents: An Overview
Current Green Chemistry, 2020Green chemistry emphasizes designing novel routes to overcome health and environmental problems that occur during a chemical reaction. Green solvents are used in place of conventional solvents that are hazardous to both human and the environment. Solvents like water, ionic liquids, supercritical CO2, biosolvents, organic carbonates, and deep eutectic ...

Self-assembly in green solvents
Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2005Recent advances in design of surfactants and polymers for liquid and supercritical carbon dioxide, and partially fluorinated alkanes, are reviewed. The focus is on surfactant structure-performance relationships, development of non-fluorinated surfactants, and applications of CO2 continuous dispersions for nanoparticle and organic synthesis.
