Hot water extraction (HWE) prior to pulping of wood is a promising method in constructing a platform for traditional pulping or for biorefinery processing. In this study, HWE of aspen wood at a maximum reaction temperature (Treaction) between 140 and 180 oC was investigated to obtain an optimal extraction condition for wood-derived products. The effect of extraction temperature and reaction tim...

Seaweed is a carbohydrate polymer of alginate, agar, and carrageenan which can be extracted purified as hydrocolloids. Each has different physicochemical properties hydrocolloids form gels when dispersed in water. To achieve targeted according to specific purposes functions, conventional extraction methods, several green methods for extracting seaweed have been proposed discussed. The method th...

In the present study, the solvent-solvent extraction of phenazine 1-carboxylic acid (PCA) as an environmentally friendly antifouling agent from pseudomonas aeruginosa MUT3 culture was investigated. Accordingly, after screening the extraction ability of various solvents, the combined effects of operating parameters such as solvent type (ethyl acetate, dichloromethane, and n...

The carbonaceous chondrite meteorites are fragments of asteroids that have remained relatively unprocessed since the formation of the Solar System 4.56 billion years ago. The major organic component in these meteorites is a macromolecular phase that is resistant to solvent extraction. The information contained within macromolecular material can be accessed by degradative techniques such as pyro...

Background and Objectives: Heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs) are carcinogenic and mutagenic substances, which are formed during the heating process of proteinaceous foods such as meat and meat products. The extraction of these compounds from the complex matrix of meat products was carried out by microwave assisted pre-extraction and a precise, rapid and high sensitive microextraction method. ...

nanosized metal oxides dispersed polymer composites constitute a fascinating class of polymer composite materials. synthesis of such composite materials through solvent casting enhances the polymer synthetic technology. solvent casting method was used to prepare cobalt oxide (co3o4) dispersed poly (methyl methacrylate) (pmma) nano composite. x-ray diffraction tool is used to know the structural...

We investigated the preparation of CMB (cobalt-manganese-bromide) and CMA (cobaltmanganese-acetate) liquid catalysts as petroleum liquid catalysts by simultaneously recovering Co and Mn from spent Li-ion battery cathode material. To prepare the liquid catalysts, the total preparation process for the liquid catalysts consisted of physical pre-treatments, such as grinding and sieving, and chemica...
