Abstract
Expired energy drinks are rich in bioactive added-value compounds that can be recovered and reused in order to valorize food waste within a circular economy perspective. However, to accomplish such...
Highlights
In developed countries an increasing amount of food is not consumed and ends up as waste along the food value chain, creating a relevant economic and environmental problem.[1]
We proposed an integrated approach to extract and recover high-value and bioactive compounds from expired energy drinks using aqueous biphasic systems composed of cholinium-based ionic liquids (ILs) and PPG 400
The aqueous biphasic systems (ABS) phase diagrams were determined at 25°C and atmospheric pressure, in which the ILs in ABS formation followed the order: [Ch][DHP] > [Ch][Ac] > [Ch]Cl >
