[PMID: 39326536 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2024.131535] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2024] [Revised: 09/03/2024] [Accepted: 09/23/2024] [Indexed: 09/28/2024]
Abstract
The recovery of furfural from hemicellulosic biowastes is important for developing sustainable and renewable energy alternatives to fossil fuels. However, current methods are inefficient and environmentally questionable. To address this issue, this study introduces neoteric hydrophobic solvents, specifically deep eutectic solvents (DESs) and ionic liquids (ILs). Of the 32 solvents tested, thymol:decanoic acid 1:1 (Thy:DecA) DES and trihexyltetradecyl phosphonium bis(trifluoro methylsulfonyl) imide [P14,6,6,6][NTf2] IL were the most effective, with extraction efficiencies of 94.1% and 97.1%, respectively. These solvents outperformed the reference solvent toluene, with an efficiency of 81.2%, while also showing favorable characteristics in multiple investigated criterions. For the first time, excellent performance stability was demonstrated under various operational conditions and reusability over multiple extraction and regeneration cycles. Furthermore, to provide insights into the molecular mechanisms of extraction, computational quantum chemistry modeling was employed, which showed a strong agreement with the experimental results. The development of these new neoteric solvents for furfural recovery from biowaste offers a highly effective, sustainable, and eco-friendly alternative to traditional solvents, representing a significant breakthrough in the field of renewable bioenergy production and sustainable materials recovery.

A Review on the Application of Deep Eutectic Solvents in Polymer-Based Membrane Preparation for Environmental Separation Technologies. Polymers (Basel) 2024; 16:2604. [PMID: 39339067 PMCID: PMC11435313 DOI: 10.3390/polym16182604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2024] [Revised: 09/06/2024] [Accepted: 09/09/2024] [Indexed: 09/30/2024] Open
Abstract
The use of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) for the preparation of polymer membranes for environmental separation technologies is comprehensively reviewed. DESs have been divided into five categories based on the hydrogen bond donor (HBD) and acceptor (HBA) that are involved in the production of the DESs, and a wide range of DESs' physicochemical characteristics, such as density, surface tension, viscosity, and melting temperature, are initially gathered. Furthermore, the most popular techniques for creating membranes have been demonstrated and discussed, with a focus on the non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) method. Additionally, a number of studies have been reported in which DESs were employed as pore formers, solvents, additives, or co-solvents, among other applications. The addition of DESs to the manufacturing process increased the presence of finger-like structures and macrovoids in the cross-section and, on numerous occasions, had a substantial impact on the overall porosity and pore size. Performance data were also gathered for membranes made for various separation technologies, such as ultrafiltration (UF) and nanofiltration (NF). Lastly, DESs provide various options for the functionalization of membranes, such as the creation of various liquid membrane types, with special focus on supported liquid membranes (SLMs) for decarbonization technologies, discussed in terms of permeability and selectivity of several gases, including CO2, N2, and CH4.

Anal Bioanal Chem 2024; 416:4057-4070.

Abstract
A novel ferrofluid prepared from a hydrophobic deep eutectic solvent (DES) and Fe3O4@graphite composite materials was introduced as a green microextraction medium for the separation and enrichment of trace estrogens in real samples. It was found that the ferrofluid greatly improved the capacity and selectivity of target analytes, benefiting from the enrichment of both DES and Fe3O4@graphite composite materials. Using a combination of high-performance liquid chromatography-fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD) and vortex-assisted liquid-liquid microextraction (VALLME), a new method was established for simultaneous rapid processing and accurate determination of three estrogens (estradiol [E2], estriol [E3], and ethinyl estradiol [EE2]) in environmental water and urine samples. Key parameters affecting the extraction efficiency were optimized using a single-factor approach and response surface methodology. Under optimal conditions, this method yielded a low limit of detection (1.01 ng L-1, 3.03 ng L-1, and 25.0 ng L-1 for EE2, E2, and E3, respectively), wide linear range (3-200,000 ng L-1), high enrichment factors (9.81-47.2), and satisfactory recovery (73.8-129.0%). Compared with traditional analytical techniques, this method avoids the use of volatile toxic organic extraction solvents and cumbersome phase separation operations.

Acid insoluble lignin material production by chemical activation of olive endocarps for an efficient furfural adsorption-removal from aqueous solutions. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 248:118243.

Abstract
The present work describes a protocol of chemical activation, with acid catalyst, of olive endocarps to obtain acid insoluble lignin-rich materials with high capacities for the adsorption of furfural present in aqueous media. During biomass activation, factors such as acid concentration, reaction time and temperature, solid/liquid ratio and the presence of water extractives strongly affected both the surface characteristics of the treated bioadsorbents and their capacities for furfural retention (percentage increase close to 600% with respect to the crude biomass). Once a treated solid with good adsorbent properties was obtained, the optimal conditions for adsorption were found: stirring speed 80 rpm, temperature 303 K and adsorbent load 7.5 g solid/50 cm3. Kinetic study indicated the pseudo-second order model provided the best fit of the experimental data. At 303 K, the equilibrium adsorption capacities values ranged from 2.27 mg g-1 to 29.29 mg g-1, for initial furfural concentrations between 0.49 g dm-3 and 12.88 g dm-3. Freundlich model presented the best isotherm (R2 = 0.996 and SE = 4.7%) providing KF and n values of 0.115 (mg g-1) (mg dm-3)-n and 0.610, respectively. Since physical interactions predominate in the adsorption of furfural on chemically activated olive endocarps, the furfural removal process could have occurred reversibly on the heterogeneous surface of the bioadsorbents.

Abstract
In the last 10 years the interest in deep eutectic solvents (DESs) as a new class of green solvents has considerably increased. The emergence of numerous of hydrophobic DESs has stimulated intensive research into their application in extraction technologies, including sample preparation. As the properties of such systems are highly dependent on the properties of their components (hydrogen bond donors and acceptors) and can be finely tuned, DESs can be successfully used for the extraction of both metal ions and organic substances, including biomolecules. Despite the rapidly increasing number of publications on the use of DESs as an extraction medium, including review articles, information on the extraction properties of DESs in terms of their chemical composition has not yet been summarized. This review covers available literature data on the physicochemical properties of menthol-based eutectic solvents and the results of their practical application as an extraction medium. Also, the appropriateness of using the term "DES" for all mixtures with melting points lower than the melting points of their components is discussed.

Abstract
Physicochemical properties of the binary mixtures based on Caprylic acid: Quaternary ammonium salts (QAS) (7:3 mol ratio) are investigated using MD simulations. Considering the hydrophobic character of eutectic solvents based on long-chain fatty acids, the stability of the binary mixtures was investigated in the adjacent water. In order to investigate the effect of water on intermolecular interactions in binary mixtures, the structural properties of the binary mixtures in the pure state and adjacent to water were investigated at 310 K. Assessed structural properties include the combined distribution functions (CDFs), the radial distribution functions (RDFs), the angular distribution functions (ADFs), and the Hydrogen bonding network between HBA and HBD and Spatial distribution functions (SDF). We aimed to represent the structural stability of eutectic solvents based on Caprylic acid and Quaternary ammonium salts (QAS) as a function of the alkyl chain length of cations, the evidence was found for the interaction between the chloride anion leads to the transition of HBA to the water-rich phase. The alkyl chain length of cations of Quaternary ammonium salts shows the stability of eutectic solvents in the adjacent water.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs), have been recognized as effective materials for the extraction of different compounds. In this study, the performance of a novel hydrophobic DES was evaluated for the extraction of phenol from aqueous solutions. Octanoic and dodecanoic fatty acid precursors with a definite molar ratio of 3:1, respectively, were used for the DES having a low melting point of 8.3 °C. The purity and stability of the product were confirmed via characterizing by FTIR, 1H and 13C NMR methods. The liquid-liquid equilibrium of the water + phenol + DES ternary system at different temperatures of 293.2, 298.2 and 308.2 K was accordingly studied through cloud point titration method and refractive index measurement. Interestingly, the important parameters of the solute distribution coefficient and the separation factor were, respectively, within the high levels of (6.8321-9.7787) and (895.76-2770.17), indicating the amazing capability of the DES. Reasonably, both of these parameters decreased with temperature. The NRTL and UNIQUAC thermodynamic models were employed to reproduce the obtained tie-lines and to determine the interaction parameters at each temperature. The low level root mean square deviations for the mentioned models were, respectively, within (0.0014-0.0027) and (0.0045-0.0063); confirming satisfactorily agreement with the experimental data.

Abstract
Monosaccharides play a vital role in the human diet due to their interesting biological activity and functional properties. Conventionally, sugars are extracted using volatile organic solvents (VOCs). Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have recently emerged as a new green alternative to VOCs. Nonetheless, the selection criterion of an appropriate DES for a specific application is a very difficult task due to the designer nature of these solvents and the theoretically infinite number of combinations of their constituents and compositions. This paper presents a framework for screening a large number of DES constituents for monosaccharide extraction application using COSMO-RS. The framework employs the activity coefficients at infinite dilution (γi∞) as a measure of glucose and fructose solubility. Moreover, the toxicity analysis of the constituents is considered to ensure that selected constituents are safe to work with. Finally, the obtained viscosity predictions were used to select DESs that are not transport-limited. To provide more insights into which functional groups are responsible for more effective monosaccharide extraction, a structure-solubility analysis was carried out. Based on an analysis of 212 DES constituents, the top-performing hydrogen bond acceptors were found to be carnitine, betaine, and choline chloride, while the top-performing hydrogen bond donors were oxalic acid, ethanolamine, and citric acid. A research initiative was presented in this paper to develop robust computational frameworks for selecting optimal DESs for a given application to develop an effective DES design strategy that can aid in the development of novel processes using DESs.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are modified versions of ionic liquids (ILs) and are formed by the fusion of polar components (liquids or solids) via hydrogen bonding interactions. DESs are prepared by the simple mixing of two or three cheap constituents (that are capable of self-association) with gentle heating, which leads to a drastic decrease in their melting points. The resultant clear homogeneous mixture consists of cations, anions, as well as neutral molecules; this will contribute both ionic and molecular solvent properties to the DESs. DESs have emerged as alternatives to conventional organic solvents and ILs, which meet different criteria such as availability, low cost, low toxicity, biodegradability, recyclability, ease of preparation method, tunable, and designer physiochemical properties. Many of them have attracted considerable attention and haave been applied in distinct fields of chemistry. To summarize the full-scale development of DESs, this review discusses the history, classifications, various methods of preparation, properties, and some major applications in catalysis in the last three years. This review is expected to be helpful for the further development of DESs based on a summary of the fundamental research in the field.

Automated liquid-liquid microextraction and determination of sulfonamides in urine samples based on Schiff bases formation in natural deep eutectic solvent media. Talanta 2021; 234:122660.

Abstract
In this work, an automated liquid-liquid microextraction procedure for the determination of sulfonamides (sulfamethoxazole, sulfamethazine and sulfapyridine) in urine samples using natural deep eutectic solvent is presented for the first time. The mechanism for extraction of sulfonamides was based on the formation of colored Schiff bases in the presence of vanillin, which acted as a derivatization reagent and precursor of natural deep eutectic solvent (an extractant). In this procedure, thymol was used as both media for Schiff bases formation and as a second precursor of the natural deep eutectic solvent. The formation of the Schiff bases was confirmed by mass spectrometry. A Lab-In-Syringe concept was applied for the automation of the microextraction procedure. The procedure involved mixing the sample and natural deep eutectic solvent into a syringe of a flow system, formation and microextraction of colored Schiff base followed by UV-Vis detection. Under optimal automated conditions the limits of detection, calculated from a blank test based on 3s (sigma) were 0.06, 0.1, and 0.06 mg L-1 for sulfapyridine, sulfamethoxazole and sulfamethazine. The proposed automated procedure permitted the routine determination of one drug (sulfamethoxazole, sulfamethazine or sulfapyridine) in urine samples to be achieved in less than 10 min.

Abstract
The most important developments in solvent-based fluid separations, separations involving at least one fluid phase, are reviewed. After a brief introduction and discussion on general solvent trends observed in all fields of application, several specific fields are discussed. Important solvent trends include replacement of traditional molecular solvents by ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents and, more recently, increasing discussion around bio-based solvents in some application fields. Furthermore, stimuli-responsive systems are discussed; the most significant developments in this field are seen for CO2-switchable and redox-responsive solvents. Discussed fields of application include hydrocarbons separations, carbon capture, biorefineries, and metals separations. For all but the hydrocarbons separations, newly reported electrochemically mediated separations seem to offer exciting new windows of opportunities.

Abstract
Lactic acid that is prepared by fermentation is a compound in food, cosmetic pharmaceutical, and chemical industries. Since a simple technique is desired that separates lactic acid from the cultures, we propose lactic acid permeation through a poly(vinyl chloride)(PVC)-based membrane that contains deep eutectic solvents (DESs) as a carrier. Lactic acid was successfully permeated through polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs) containing hydrophilic DESs, urea-choline chloride and glucose-choline chloride. The permeation behavior was explained by the facilitated transport mechanism based on the solution-diffusion model. Simple preparation of thinner membranes in the PIM process and higher permeation rates are advantages over the supported liquid membrane process. The PVC-based membrane process containing environmentally benign hydrophilic DESs is promising for lactic acid separation on an industrial scale.

Abstract
As growing concerns on green, cost-effective, and time-saving chemistry analysis methods, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are considered to be promising green alternatives to conventional solvents in dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) of trace level chemical contaminants in food and water, due to their biodegradability, low cost, and simple preparation. In the past few years, numerous innovative researches have focused on preconcentration of trace level chemical contaminants using DESs as extractant. In this context, this review aims to summarize the updated state-of-the-art effort dedicated to preconcentration of trace level chemical contaminants in food and water sample using DESs as extractants in DLLME. Furthermore, the major impact factors affecting the preconcentration efficiency and process mechanisms are thoroughly analyzed and discussed. Finally, prospects and challenges in application of DESs as solvents in DLLME to enrich trace level chemical contaminants are extensively elucidated and critically reviewed.

Abstract
CO2 emission from flue gas is an important issue threatening human survival. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs), which have many unique properties, have been studied for CO2 capture. However, water can be absorbed by DESs during the absorption of CO2, which may increase the energy cost during the desorption of CO2. In this work, a new kind of hydrophobic functional DES formed by polyamine hydrochloride and thymol was synthesized and used for CO2 capture. It had been found that these DESs could efficiently capture CO2 even at low partial pressures. The CO2 capacity of [TEPA]Cl-thymol (n [TEPA]Cl/n thymol = 1:3) was high up to 1.355 mol CO2/mol DES at 40 °C and 101.3 kPa. Interestingly, these DESs were still hydrophobic after saturated with CO2. The CO2 absorption capacity increased with a decrease of temperature and an increase of CO2 partial pressure. Regeneration results showed that no obvious loss in the capacity could be found after five absorption/desorption cycles of these DESs. The Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra indicated that CO2 could interact with amino in the DESs by the formation of carboxylate. Moreover, the equilibrium constant and Henry's law constant in chemical absorption and physical absorption were studied.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) consist of a mixture of two or more solid components, which gives rise to a lower melting point compared to the starting materials. Until recently only hydrophilic DESs were available, and despite their revolutionary role in the alternative-solvents field, important issues in chemistry, and chemical engineering (such as water-related problems and the replacement of toxic volatile organic compounds) could not be tackled. Hydrophobic (deep)-here in parenthesis due to the different depths of the eutectic melting points-eutectic solvents are a subclass of DESs where both components are hydrophobic. The low toxicity, high biodegradability, and straightforward preparation without further purification steps of naturally occurring low-cost compounds are among the key advantages. Although research on hydrophobic DESs is scarce (the first report was only published in 2015), some interesting features and applications have been reported and deserve to be evaluated and comparisons established. This Minireview is divided into two parts: The first part provides a brief general introduction to DESs and the second part discusses the nomenclature using solid-liquid phase diagram analysis, chemical stability, thermophysical properties comparison, and finally the most important emerging fields of application.

Abstract
In the over 1,800 articles published since their inception in 2001, most deep eutectic solvents (DES) synthesized have been hydrophilic. The low cost, low toxicity, and bioavailability of DES make the solvent ‘green’ and sustainable for diverse applications. Conversely, the hydrophilicity of DES limits their practical application to only polar compounds, which is a major drawback of the solvent. For the past three years, hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (HDES) have emerged as an alternative extractive media capable of extracting non-polar organic and inorganic molecules from aqueous environments. Due to the infancy of HDES, for the first time, this mini-review summarizes the recent developmental advances in HDES synthesis, applications, challenges, and future perspectives of the solvent. In the future, it is believed HDES will replace the majority of toxic organic solvents used for analytical purposes.
