The HS removal performances of four deep eutectic solvent (DES) based nanofluid (NF) systems were measured using dynamic absorption experiment. The Cu containing NF system is found to be an excellent absorbent for HS removal with a significantly enhanced desulfurization performance compared with DES original solution. Besides, the NF systems have relatively high regeneration performance. The NF systems and Cu nanoparticles before and after absorption as well as after regeneration were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra, scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and energy dispersive spectrum (EDS). It is found that the ethanolamine, choline cation and sulfur were accumulated on the surface of Cu nanoparticles after absorption, and the bulk elements on the surface were identified as Cu and S after regeneration. The S was existed in the form of CuS, and some sulfur was oxidized to zero-valent sulfur after regeneration.

Synthetic dye production and the consequent generation of dye-rich wastewater are major concerns of water quality in many countries. We developed a sustainable approach with deep eutectic solvent (DES) treatment to enhance the efficiency of mixed cellulose ester (MCE) membrane-based dye removal material. The DES composition and treatment conditions were optimized, and the treated membranes were comprehensively characterized.

Herein, choline chloride/oxalic acid (ChCl/OA) and choline chloride/oxalic acid/ethylene glycol (ChCl/OA/EG) pretreatments of oil palm empty fruit bunches (EFB) and mesocarp fibers (MSF) were conducted to achieve protection of the lignin structure, while improving the enzymatic efficiency of the solid residues. Under the operating conditions of 90 °C and 6 h, ChCl/OA/EG demonstrated a higher lignin extraction selectivity and obtained solid residues with higher hemicellulose content compared to ChCl/OA. The digestibility of glucan and xylan in solid residues obtained using ChCl/OA/EG achieved 98.

This study utilizes deep eutectic solvent (DES)-assisted enhancement of cellulose-based immobilized probiotics for efficient biotransformation of isofraxidin from Acanthopanax senticosus. Among seven probiotic strains tested, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum CICC 20767 exhibited the best catalytic activity. We explored the effects of 12 different DESs with varying hydrogen bond donors on the conversion capacity of the immobilized probiotics, with the highest efficiency observed using ChCl/EG (4.

Micrometer-sized silicon oxide (SiO) anodes encounter challenges in large-scale applications due to significant volume expansion during the alloy/de-alloy process. Herein, an innovative deep eutectic electrolyte derived from succinonitrile is introduced to enhance the cycling stability of SiO anodes. Density functional theory calculations validate a robust ion-dipole interaction between lithium ions (Li) and succinonitrile (SN).

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are an emerging class of ionic liquids with high tunability and promise for battery applications. In this study, we investigated acetamide-based DESs for Zn batteries, focusing on a synergistic mixture of two known acetamide (Ace)-based DESs: Ace4ZnCl2 and Ace4ZnTFSI2. By combining these two DESs in various ratios, we aimed to enhance ionic conductivity and optimize electrochemical performance while addressing corrosion concerns.
