Liquid-liquid equilibria and intermolecular interactions for extraction of 2-methyl phenol, 3-methyl phenol and phenol from water by a ternary hydrophobic deep eutectic solvent

BackgroundHydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (HDESs) are environmentally friendly solvents that can be used to extract water pollutants, including phenolic compounds. MethodsIn this research, a ternary HDES (thymol: caprylic acid: capric acid = 1:1:1, molar ratio) has been used for the extraction of 2-methyl phenol, 3-methyl phenol and phenol from water. The effect of the HDES on liquid-liquid phase behavior of the ternary mixtures (2-methyl phenol/ 3-methyl phenol / phenol + HDES + water) at 298.15 K was discussed. The NRTL model has been used to correlate the experimental data. The selectivity and distribution coefficient were calculated as the important indexes for evaluating the extraction potential of the ternary HDES. Significant FindingsThe results showed that the ternary HDES can be used as a good extractant for the extraction of 2-methyl phenol, 3-methyl phenol and phenol. Besides, the ternary HDES could extract 2-methyl phenol and 3-methyl phenol better than phenol from their aqueous solutions. Electrostatic potentials, interaction energies and reduced density gradients were used to further investigate the interactions of 2-methyl phenol, 3-methyl phenol and phenol with the ternary HDES.

Facile fractionation of poplar by a novel ternary deep eutectic solvent (DES) for cellulosic ethanol production under mild pretreatment conditions

The efficient fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass using deep eutectic solvent (DES) is emerging as an innovative and eco-friendly approach. In this study, a novel ternary DES composed of triethylbenzyl ammonium chloride (TEBAC), p-toluene sulfonic acid (TsOH), and ethylene glycol (EG) was employed for the pretreatment of poplar wood to enhance cellulosic ethanol production. Key pretreatment parameters, including temperature, DES molar ratios, and reaction time, were systematically optimized. Under optimal conditions (90 ºC, 60 min, TEBAC/TsOH/EG ratio of 1:1.5:3) lignin removal reached 90.64±1.28 % and xylan removal achieved 85.56±1.34 %, significantly improving cellulose digestibility. The improvement might be attributed to the removal of hemicellulose and lignin, which exposed cellulose and enhanced the accessibility of cellulase to cellulose. Additionally, optimized enzymatic hydrolysis yielded a glucose concentration of 65.98±0.97 g/L using an enzyme loading of 15 FPU/g poplar and a solid loading of 13.33 %. Furthermore, during pre-hydrolysis combined with simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (PSSF), an ethanol concentration of 37.58±0.23 g/L was achieved. Overall, this study demonstrates a novel ternary DES pretreatment method that effectively facilitates the fractionation and conversion of woody biomass into cellulosic ethanol.

Technical, environmental, and safety aspects in LignoSphere pilot plant design

The development of pilot plants is important in establishing new technology to close the gap between lab-scale and full-scale operations by minimizing technical uncertainties. Currently, limited research is available to evaluate different aspects of pilot plants for producing lignin-based materials before commercialization. This paper focuses on designing a safe and eco-friendly pilot plant for optimizing production of dried colloidal lignin particles (CLPs). The process starts with dissolving lignin in a ternary solvent mixture, introducing it into water to generate CLPs via self-assembly, recovering the solvents, and spray-drying CLPs. Based on reported lab-scale results, a detailed study was conducted to design the pilot plant, considering the technical, safety, and environmental factors according to standards and European Union legislation. The planned daily capacity of the pilot plant was 20 kg with 2.2 M€ fixed capital costs. This process design research can be applied in similar processes that involve lignin dissolution before scale-up.

Synthesis of Raspberry-like PMMA Particles In a Ternary Solvent Mixture with Binary Initiators.

There is continuing interest in the synthesis of raspberry-like polymer particles, among which most of the reports have tended to focus on polymer composite particles, while there are relatively few examples of polymer particles with a single component. In this study, raspberry-like poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA) particles were synthesized by a one-step method in a ternary solvent mixture with binary initiators. The effects of different polymerization parameters, including the solvent composition, the initiator composition, the stabilizer component, the polymerization temperature, the stirring rate, and the nature of the monomer, on the morphology and size of the resulting particles were studied. A plausible mechanism for raspberry-like particle formation was suggested based on the monitoring data of the polymerization kinetics. The raspberry-like PMMA particles have a high dispersion stability in a salty aqueous environment.

A novel ternary hydrophobic deep eutectic solvent over a wide pH range for lithium recovery

Owing to the crucial role of lithium (Li) in green technology and energy storage, the global demand for Li is constantly increasing. This article provides a new strategy for recovering Li using ternary hydrophobic deep eutectic solvent (HDES). The novel HDES was composed of 2-thiophenyltrifluoroacetone (HTTA), trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO), and N,N-diethyldecanamide (DDA), and exhibited high efficiency and selectivity for extracting Li from aqueous solutions. This study systematically evaluated the effect of the initial aqueous pH on the Li extraction efficiency, revealing the stable performance of HDES in the pH range 3–13. Compared to the highly alkaline environment required for Li extraction, the pH characteristics of the HDES provide a wider range of applications and a more environmentally friendly alternative. The HDES exhibited rapid extraction kinetics, achieving equilibrium within 10 min and maintaining phase stability without emulsification. The main mechanism of selective Li extraction is the electrostatic interaction between Li(I) and TTA. The interactions between Li(I) and both TOPO and DDA were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, thereby improving the selectivity and extraction efficiency. The countercurrent extraction process demonstrated an impressive Li extraction rate of 98.704 % and a Li(I)/Na(I) separation factor of 10643.14 with industrial Li2CO3 mother liquor, highlighting the application potential of the ternary HDES. The excellent performance of the HDES over a wide pH range provides more opportunities for its application, and its high efficiency, selectivity, and environmental characteristics may promote Li recovery.

Exploring the dynamic world of ternary deep eutectic solvents: Synthesis, characterization, and key properties unveiled

Deep eutectic solvents are a novel class of solvents that have gained much attention with time due to their biodegradability, non-volatility, non-toxicity and low-cost. In this work, a novel ternary deep eutectic solvent (TDES) was synthesized using ethaline (ChCl:EG) and glycine, with the addition of carboxylic acids. The synthesized material was characterized through Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). While the thermal stability and physical properties such as density, viscosity, surface tension and refractive index were also determined). To estimate the critical properties, modified version of Lyderson-Joback-Reid (LJR) and Lee-Kesler mixing (Alkhatib et al., 2020) [1] methods were used. The density of the DES was calculated using the Spencer and Danner correlation and the obtained values were compared with experimental data. FTIR analysis confirmed that hydrogen bonding is the main driving force responsible for the formation of the deep eutectic solvents. The physical properties of the binary DES system, such as viscosity, density,and thermal stability of the system were enhanced after the incorporation of a third component (carboxylic acid) to the system. However, the surface tension of the TDES system decrease with the increasing amounts of the third component, likely due to increase in the void radius of the TDES. Thus investigation is considering as novel work to check the influence of carboxylic acids on the physical properties of binary deep eutectic solvent systems.

Use of a rugged mid-infrared spectrometer for in situ process analysis of liquids

The widespread application of mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy for process monitoring is currently limited by the poor transmission of MIR light through fibre optics. In this work, the performance of a novel and robust MIR spectrometer has been evaluated for practical deployment in a pilot plant or production environment. The spectrometer utilises a Sagnac interferometer design containing no moving parts and is directly attached to an attenuated total reflectance probe, eliminating the need for fibre optics. The quantitative performance of the spectrometer for the in situ analysis of ternary solvent mixtures was assessed. The predictions obtained by partial least squares were accurate (root mean square error of prediction of < 1% w/w) and comparable to those of a benchmark Michelson-based spectrometer with a fibre-coupled probe, which is more amenable to process development in a laboratory or pilot plant. Calibration transfer between the two spectrometers was performed using the spectral space transformation method to mimic the scenario of the scale-up of a process from the laboratory to pilot scale or from a pilot plant to production scale, where the two different MIR instruments might be deployed. The ability to perform in situ reaction monitoring with the robust Sagnac-based spectrometer was then demonstrated. Spectra acquired during an esterification reaction were resolved using multivariate curve resolution, to produce concentration profiles of each component. These results demonstrate the suitability of this rugged spectrometer for quantitative in situ monitoring of liquid processes, opening up new opportunities for process monitoring in the MIR region.

A Universal Ternary Solvent System of Surface Passivator Enables Perovskite Solar Cells with Efficiency Exceeding 26.

Surface passivation is a vital approach to improve the photovoltaic performance of perovskite solar cells (PSCs), in which the passivator solvent is an inevitable but easy-ignored factor on passivation effects. Herein, a universal ternary solvent system of surface passivators is proposed through comprehensively considering the solubility and selective perovskite dissolution of the solvent to maximize the passivation effect. Tetrahydrothiophene 1-oxide (THTO) is selected as the passivation promoter by comparing the binding energy with perovskite and the ability to distort the perovskite lattice among various aprotic polar solvent molecules, which can facilitate the passivator's reaction with perovskite and achieve sufficient passivation on perovskite surface. Besides, chlorobenzene (CB) is used as the diluting agent to minimize the amount of isopropanol (IPA), inhibiting the additional solvent-induced defects. As a result, the planar PSCs achieve a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 26.05%, (certificated 25.66%). Besides, the unencapsulated devices exhibit enhanced stability, which can maintain 95.23% and 95.68% of their initial PCE after 2000h of storage in ambient air and 800h of light-soaking in N2-glovebox. Moreover, this ternary solvent system also exhibits a well applicability and reliability in different passivator such as PEAI, BAI, and so on.

Binary and Ternary Deep Eutectic Solvents for Methylene Green Electropolymerization on Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes: Optimization, Characterization and Application.

Choline chloride (ChCl) based binary and ternary deep eutectic solvents (DES) were evaluated for methylene green electropolymerization with oxalic acid (OA) and ethylene glycol (EG) as hydrogen bond donors. Binary DES ChCl : OA in molar ratios 1 : 1 and 2 : 1 and ChCl : EG 1 : 2 and ternary DES (tDES) in different molar ratios and percentages of water were evaluated. The highest polymer growth was in ChCl : OA : EG-tDES with 13% added water, that had a lower viscosity and higher ionic conductivity when associated with HCl as dopant. This enhanced the formation of more cation radicals and, consequently, more polymer formation. The PMG/MWCNT/GCE-tDES sensor was successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) and acetaminophen (APAP) by differential pulse voltammetry in the concentration range 1 μM-200 μM, with detection limits of 0.37 μM and 0.49 μM for 5-ASA and APAP, respectively. The sensor demonstrated good repeatability, reproducibility and stability, and was successfully applied in pharmaceutical formulations.

Activation of muscle amine functional groups using eutectic mixture to enhance tissue adhesiveness of injectable, conductive and therapeutic granular hydrogel for diabetic ulcer regeneration

Herein, Polydopamine-modified microgels and microgels incorporated with superficial epoxy groups were synthesized and applied as precursors for the fabrication of four granular hydrogels. To enhance the tissue adhesiveness, a ternary deep eutectic solvent was synthesized to activate the muscle amine functional groups facilitating the formation of robust NC bonds at ambient conditions. At a certain shear rate of 10 s−1, hydrogel DMG displayed a viscosity of 9×103 Pa/s, representing the highest complex viscosity among the tested hydrogels primarily driven by quinone groups in PDA which enhanced reversible interactions, thereby increasing particle cohesion. Moreover, the intersection point escalating from about 4×103 to approximately 9×104 as the concentration of DMG increased from 0 % (for MG) to 70% (7D3MG) by weight. There was a decrease in adhesion strength from 0.45 ± 0.08 N in MG to 0.39 ± 0.16 N, 0.35± 0.18 N, and 0.33 ± 0.15 N for 3D7MG, 7D3MG, and DMG respectively, suggesting that MG was capable of forming numerous covalent bonds, thereby enhancing its adhesion to the substrate. The type of eutectic mixture affected the electrical conductivity and a very important point was the changes in resistance value with time. For MG catalyzed by [DES]AZG, the resistance increased only by 1.3 % (from 3.37 to 3.81 kΩ) at day 3 and 37.09 % (from 3.37 to 4.62 kΩ) at day 5. The 3D7MG hydrogel exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy toward diabetic wound regeneration. The proliferation index value for 3D7MG-[DES]AZG and 3D7MG-[DES]AG were calculated 42.3 % and 58.6 %, respectively, while the control group exhibited a lower value of 37.8 %.

Novel ternary deep eutectic solvents pretreatment of corn stalk to realize high-value utilization

The high-valued utilization of biomass components through pretreatment technology can effectively alleviate the pressure of energy and environment. In this study, a ternary deep eutectic solvent (TDES) was prepared by using glycolic acid (GA) and ethylene glycol (EG) as double hydrogen donors and benzyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (TMBAC) as hydrogen acceptor. The corn stalk was separated by TDES to obtain cellulose-rich solid residue and low-condensed lignin. Moreover, the solid residue was converted into bio-oil by rapid pyrolysis, and the low-condensed lignin was converted into fluorescent lignin by grafting luminol for information encryption. The results showed that under the pretreatment condition of 150℃ for 3 h, TDES with the molar ratio of 1:1:2 had a lignin removal ratio of 90.60 %, and the yield of levoglucosan obtained from solid residue pyrolysis bio-oil reached 36.38 %. Furthermore, TDES prevented lignin from forming a C-C polycondensation structure and endowed it with polyhydroxy properties, which was beneficial to graft luminolto enhance the fluorescence intensity efficiently. The high-intensity fluorescent grafted lignin was used for information encryption of various materials. The mechanism of TDES pretreatment and luminol grafting were explored, and the mass balance of corn stalk during pretreatment was described. This study provides a green, environmentally friendly, and efficient pretreatment process for the high-value utilization of biomass.

Phase-separated solvothermal high yields recovery of lithium and cobalt cathode precursors from end-of-life LiCoO2 lithium-ion batteries

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) recycling is one of the most urgent challenges affecting this technological sector. Indeed, their continuously growing production and demand is already leading to the creation of large volumes of end-of-life LIBs (EoL-LIBs). At the same time, the growing demand for LIBs is not sustainable from the point of view of supply of the critical raw materials needed to produce the essential components of LIBs. The development of efficient and sustainable recycling strategies provides a solution to these two urgent issues. Here we propose a new ternary deep eutectic solvent (DES) composition based on choline chloride, citric acid, and ethylene glycol in molar ratio 1:1:1 for the reductive degradation of LiCoO2 cathode. The optimized leaching process (5g of DES for 100 mg of black mass for 30 min at 140 °C) leads to the full degradation of the cathode with extraction yields above 97% for both Li and Co. Simple electrochemical tests confirm irreversible DES degradation, making its recovery and reuse impractical. We demonstrate that a subsequent thermal treatment, using DES as a sacrificial agent, allows to separate and recover Co3O4 and LiCl with adequate purity to be exploited for LiCoO2 resynthesis. As a proof of concept, a new batch of LiCoO2 is synthesized and used for new cells’ assembly. The performance of the resynthesized material is comparable with that of the commercial benchmark material, demonstrating the possibility of a full closed-loop recycling route.

Precursor Ink Engineering to Implement Vacuum Extraction Method for Scalable Production of Perovskite Solar Cells.

Engineering perovskite precursor ink to widen the processing window is crucial to obtaining uniform, compact, and pinhole-free perovskite films at scale using industrially relevant solution coating techniques. Here, we introduce a ternary solvent system and systematically investigate the impacts of coordinating solvents, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) and N,N'-dimethylpropyleneurea (DMPU), on the physical properties of the slot-die-coated perovskite films and on the corresponding device performance. Tailoring NMP and DMPU concentrations in the precursor ink allows us to control the perovskite intermediate phase formation and widen the processing window, enabling the reproducible production of perovskite films with high photoelectrical quality at scale. Using the optimized precursor ink, we demonstrate slot-die-coated perovskite minimodules with power conversion efficiencies of 19 and 16% on 56 and 100 cm2 substrates, respectively.

A green extraction technology of lignocellulose from cassava residue by mechanical activation-assisted ternary deep eutectic solvent

Lignocellulose (LC) is a natural polymer material that holds immense potential for various applications. However, extracting LC from biomass wastes with high-starch content has been challenging due to low selectivity and yield. In this study, LC was prepared from cassava residue (CR) via a combination of mechanical activation pretreatment and a citric acid (CA)-enhanced ternary deep eutectic solvent (TDES) consisting of choline chloride (ChCl), lactic acid (LA), and CA. The mechanical activation reduces the size of CR, greatly promoting the removal ability for starch, lignin and hemicellulose using TDES, and thus improving yield and selectivity of LC through this method. The CA esterified LC to prevent its excessive hydrolysis and increased a significantly higher LC content (82.52 wt%) compared to mechanical activation only and DES without CA, increasing by 6.97 times and 1.26 times, respectively. The extraction temperature significantly affected the structure, composition, thermal stability of LC and the properties of recovered TDES. The LC extracted at 90 °C (LC-90) had the highest cellulose content (82.52 wt%), crystallinity index (44.82 %), and higher degradation temperature (339.7 °C). The properties of the recovered TDES and extraction mechanism were analyzed. This study provides a strategy for the high-value utilization of biomass waste.

Efficient β-carotene recovery from surfactant-based aqueous solutions: Advancing from experimental to process simulation

β-carotene is a carotenoid present in the human diet with numerous functions in the body. This work suggests a new platform for efficiently recovering this bioactive compound from aqueous solutions. For the first time, a ternary deep eutectic solvent (DES) is proposed to promote phase separation in aqueous solutions of non-ionic surfactants (Triton X-102 and Tween 20). The influence of temperature on the miscibility regions was investigated from 298.15 K to 308.15 K as a preliminary step. The obtained phase diagrams at three temperatures were accurately correlated using four empirical equations. The extraction capacity of these novel combinations was analysed by means of the Tie-Lines (TL) and their derived magnitudes: Tie-Line Length (TLL) and Slope (S). The reliability of the TLs was ascertained through three empirical equations. Analysis of the data showed that more than 99 % of the model carotene could be extracted using ChCl:U:Gly from a Triton X-102 aqueous solution at 308.15 K. Process simulation using SuperPro Designer confirmed that an effective and sustainable process for recovering β-carotene from algal biomass can be designed using a simple approach.

Environmentally stable, Adhesive, Self-healing, Stretchable and Transparent Gelatin based Eutectogels for Self-Powered Humidity Sensors

Intrinsic environmental and stability limitations of hydrogels have inhibited their practical applications as a flexible wearable device due to water evaporation or freezing in complex environments such as low temperatures and arid environments. In this work, a multifunctional gelatin based ionic conductive eutectogel with double network structure is designed via ternary deep eutectic solvent (DES) (acrylic acid (AA), choline chloride (ChCl) and ethylene glycol (EG)). In this system, the introduction of ethylene glycol (EG) can be used to dissolve gelatin. The resulting DESG eutectogel exhibited excellent adhesion, mechanical robustness, anti-freeze, anti-drying, and self-healing. Interestingly, the DESG gels showed high humidity sensitivity in a wide humidity detection range (11 %–83 %), which can be assembled as a self-powdered humidity sensor to monitor human mouth and nose breathing. This work is expected to bring new prospect to construct high performance humidity sensors using gelatin based humidity-responsive materials for a wide range of potential applications in respiratory diagnostics, sleep monitoring, electronic skin and wearable electronics.

Synergistic ternary deep eutectic solvents: An archetype for sustainable and eco-conscious Li and Co recovery from spent batteries

The development of sustainable materials for energy is a critical challenge in the pursuit of a circular economy. This study presents an innovative approach for recycling lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) using a novel, sustainable deep eutectic solvent (DES) composed of glycine, ascorbic acid, and water. This natural, chloride-free ternary DES leverages the biocompatible and eco-friendly properties of its constituents, achieving exceptional leaching efficiency of 99.1 % for lithium and 97.9 % for cobalt under optimized conditions. A multifaceted methodology integrating advanced factorial design, kinetic modeling, and machine learning was employed to refine the process parameters and enhance leaching efficiency. The extraction kinetics were predominantly governed by endothermic surface reactions, characterized by activation energies of 81.5 kJ/mol for Co and 110.9 kJ/mol for Li. An ensemble neural network model accurately predicted the extraction with an R2 > 0.95, demonstrating the robustness of the computational approach. The DES exhibited excellent recyclability over five cycles, thereby emphasizing its potential for practical industrial applications in the field of sustainable materials management. This approach facilitated the selective recovery of high-purity lithium oxalate and cobalt oxalate, underscoring the efficiency and environmental benefits of the process. DFT calculations provided insights into the extraction mechanism, revealing the crucial role of hydrogen bonding and synergistic effects of the DES components. This pioneering study not only advances LIB recycling but also establishes a comprehensive, quantitatively validated framework, paving the way for future innovations in sustainable materials management and supporting global efforts towards a circular economy in energy storage.

Preparation of nanoporous poly (L-lactic acid) microspheres with controllable morphology via thermally-induced phase separation

This article describes a facile method to prepare nanoporous poly (l-lactic acid) microspheres via a thermally-induced phase separation method with controllable diameters. It was found that the morphology and diameter of PLLA microspheres were easily controlled by adjusting solvent ratio, quenching temperature, and PLLA concentrations. The results revealed that by using a ternary solvent system consisting of 1,3-dioxolane as a good solvent, 2-butanone as mid-solvent, and water as a poor solvent, the diameter of PLLA microspheres can be easily controlled by changing the ratio of 1,3-dioxolane and water. The diameter of PLLA microspheres prepared ranged from 28.8 ± 5.9 μm to 63.8 ± 12.5 μm. Moreover, the evolution of PLLA spherulitic structures grown from polymer solution was confirmed as well through varying solvent ratios and PLLA concentrations. The presence of water as a non-solvent governed the phase separation mechanism of the phase separation process. At the same time, the diameter of the spherulites is affected by the ratio of 1,3-dioxolane controlling the polymer crystallization process in the polymer-rich region. Interestingly, the surface of these spherulites contains nanopores due to the stacking of lamellar crystals of PLLA during polymer crystallization which contributed to its superhydrophobicity and superoleophilicity. Hence, the prepared PLLA spherulites were utilized as PLLA microspheres with nanoporous surfaces for the adsorption and removal of oil in oil/water and oil-in-water emulsion. This facile method provides a novel pathway to prepare nanoporous PLLA microspheres with controllable diameters for eco-friendly oil/water and oil-in-water separation applications.

Absorption-Desorption Characteristics of the Synthesized Deep Eutectic Solvents for Carbon Dioxide Capture

The development of an environmentally friendly CO2 absorbent with significant energy utilization which can be an alternative to CO2 capture by an ethanolamine solution is presently an obligatory issue. In this work, binary and ternary deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were prepared according to their CO2 absorption/desorption performances. A series of DESs comprise different hydrogen bonding donor (HBD)- acceptor (HBA) pairs as CO2 capturing solvents; HBAs include choline chloride (ChCl) and tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB), and selected amines are represented as HBDs and include monoethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA), and triethanolamine (TEA). Binary DESs synthesized of ChCl/MEA, ChCl/DEA, ChCl/TEA, TBAB/MEA, TBAB/DEA, and TBAB/TEA in a CO2 absorption cell at a mole ratio of 1:4. While selected amidines were represented as super-based (SB) and included 1,5-Diazabicyclo [4.3.0] non-5-ene (DBN) and 1,8-Diazabicyclo [5.4.0] undec-7-ene (DBU). The ternary DESs were prepared by adding DBN or DBU to the binary DESs system in a (1:4:3) molar ratio. CO2 absorption experiments were attained at atmospheric pressure and a temperature of 30 °C using 15 vol.% CO2 with 85 vol.% N2. On the other hand, the regeneration process for DESs was conducted at 90 oC. Binary DES synthesized from ChCl/MEA gives a higher absorption rate of CO2 of 0.0177 mole/kg. min, CO2 absorption loading of 2.9092 mole CO2/kg solvent, cyclic loading of 2.0001 mole CO2/kg solvent, and a regeneration efficiency of 68.75%. The synthesis DESs showed a better performance compare with a common Ionic liquids.
