Abstract The application of nanocatalysts for the conversion crude oil into biodiesel represents a promising strategy to mitigate environmental issues and diminish dependence on fossil fuels. This review scrutinizes contemporary developments in nanocatalyst technology pertaining synthesis, emphasizing effectiveness, specificity, ecological sustainability various nanocatalysts, which include metal oxides, magnetic solid catalysts, an array other nanostructured materials. These catalysts have exhibited substantial potential augmenting efficiency selectivity production, attributable their enhanced catalytic performance, extensive surface area, resilience saponification, rendering them appropriate diverse feedstocks such as recycled oils, animal fats, plant oils. Notwithstanding obstacles associated with production costs recycling procedures, recent progress economically viable manufacturing techniques sustainable recovery methods, including separation approaches, offers significant promise. A thorough lifecycle assessment (LCA) remains imperative appraise economic viability employing taking account parameters, raw material acquisition, energy utilization, waste generation. accentuates superior efficacy comparison traditional heterogeneous underscoring capacity expedite synthesis facilitate transition toward more environmentally paradigm.

Xyloglucan from Tamarindus indica seeds (TISs) is a polysaccharide widely used in the food, biomedical, and pharmaceutical sectors. Nevertheless, challenge future research for food processing industry to provide adequate knowledge regarding natural product extraction, chemical modifications, interactions, potential applications according sustainability issues. The goal of this work was implement sustainable method xyloglucan extraction TISs at semi-industrial scale carry out characterization hydrocolloid, compare effect technique decorticating on composition physicochemical properties xyloglucan. were decorticated using soaking (DS) roasting (DR) methods, and, then, extracted applying mechanical separation process. Subsequently, yield, content, Fourier transform infrared analysis, color, morphology, molecular weight (MW), viscosity, texture, Z potential, particle size, thermal evaluated. demonstrated first time. yield by DR (44.04%) significantly higher (p < 0.05) compared with DS (41.42%), while efficiency similar both methods (~97%). Significant differences fat, ashes, crude fiber, calcium, total phenolic antioxidant capacity samples observed DR. promoted changes MW size samples, which reflected texture attributes, These results show that an important issue be considered resultant tamarind seeds, suitable industries.
