The development of a green, safe, and accurate sample preparation method for the determination of trace metal elements in environmental samples is of great importance. Choline chloride-based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were used to extract heavy metal elements from litterfall and the target analytes were measured using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. Factors such as the type, ratio, dosage, and extraction time and temperature of the DESs were studied.

- Chinese hickory shell, a food industry by-product, is underutilized, prompting research into sustainable technologies for its transformation.
- This study explores hydrothermal processes to efficiently produce xylooligosaccharides (XOS) from the shells, with variables like temperature and time influencing chemical structure and yield.
- The optimal conditions identified were a temperature of 160 °C for 2 hours, resulting in a high yield of XOS while minimizing unwanted by-products, which can significantly aid food waste valorization in the biorefinery sector.
