Development of an eco-friendly, low cost and high energy density LiMnPO4 cathode material has attracted much attention due to its high operating voltage vs. Li falling within the electrochemical stability window of conventional electrolyte solutions and offers more safety features due to the presence of a strong P-O covalent bond.Synthesis of battery materials integrates the...

Phytoremediation is an eco-friendly method for removal of pollutants, which can be relied upon as a sustainable technology, if implemented under optimum conditions of plant growth. The effectiveness of water hyacinth, a topical weed, for the removal of Zinc (Zn) and Chromium (Cr) ions from aqueous solutions has been presented in this article. The potential of this plant in removing metals by ph...

Rapid industrialization leads to serious environmental hazards due the increase in release of pollutants into environment. Industries that use synthetic dyes for different applications are a predominant source dye contaminants by releasing wastewater with pretreatment or without treatment directly water bodies, making pollution Therefore, it is imperative safeguard environment from such and the...

In Japan, greenhouse gas emissions from rice production, especially CH4 emissions in rice paddy fields, are the primary contributors to global warming from agriculture. When prolonged midseason drainage for mitigating CH4 emissions from rice paddy fields is practiced with environmentally friendly rice production based on reduced use of synthetic pesticides and chemical fertilizers, Japanese ric...

Environmental awareness continues to rise, and customers of all types are realizing the importance of eco-friendly products which are essential to protect our planet. Eco-designer creates designs that are demanded by markets. Green design rules are needed to support the implementation of environmental features in the practical design situation. Green design or Design for Environment (DfE) is a ...

In this study, an eco-friendly process utilizing a low concentration of hydrogen peroxide along with autoclaving and sonication was developed, accomplishing both carbon nanotube size reduction and hydroxyl functionalization.

Silica supported phosphomolybdic acid, an eco-friendly heterogeneous catalyst, has been found to be highly efficient for Friedlander synthesis of quinolines in excellent yields. A variety of ketones afford the quinolines smoothly. The catalyst can be easily recovered and reused.
