Sustainable solvents are a topic of growing interest in both the research community and the
chemical industry due to a growing awareness of the impact of solvents on pollution, energy …

Solvents are important in most industrial and domestic applications. The impact of solvent
losses and emissions drives efforts to minimise them or to avoid them completely. Since the …

CO2 is an ideal trigger for switchable or stimuli-responsive materials because it is benign,
inexpensive, green, abundant, and does not accumulate in the system. Many different CO2 …

Abstract Hydrophobic Deep Eutectic Solvents (HDESs) represent a novel kind of solvent.
While several studies investigated their properties, just a few dealt with their use for …

Separation is widely involved in many fields, such as materials synthesis, gas purification or
removal, water treatment, petroleum exploitation, soil remediation, food and medicine …

Switchable hydrophilicity solvents (SHS) began being used in analytical chemistry only in
2015, although they have been known for a long time in chemistry and technology. In this …

A new procedure based on switchable hydrophilicity solvents (SHS) was proposed for
polyethylene and aluminium recovery from food aseptic packaging. Treatment with N, N …

This article reports a systematic study on a highly CO 2-responsive superamphiphile (D-OA)
in preparation of CO 2-switchable oil-in-water emulsions. The D-OA was assembled with …

Highlights•The newest applications of gas expanded liquids and switchable solvents are
presented.•CO 2 may act as green trigger to efficiently modify solvent properties.•These …

Considering the momentous cost drivers in energy efficient algal biorefinery processes, a
green alternative in extracting lipid from microalgae is anticipated. Switchable solvent …
