Article Synopsis
- The heavy reliance on crude oil for energy has sparked the need for sustainable alternatives, especially in using solvents for biomass conversion to valuable chemicals.
- Conventional solvents have drawbacks like high costs, environmental issues, and complex separation processes, leading researchers to seek greener, more cost-effective options.
- This review evaluates various green solvents, such as ionic liquids and biomass-derived solvents, highlighting their benefits and challenges while discussing future research opportunities for better solvent utilization in biomass processing.
In this work, heterogeneous photocatalysis was used to treat pulp and paper mill effluent (PPME). Magnetically retrievable FeO-TiO was fabricated by employing a solvent-free mechanochemical process under ambient conditions. Findings elucidated the successful incorporation of FeO into the TiO lattice.
