Cellulose-based materials for air purification: A review

Industrial Crops and Products, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 194, P. 116331 - 116331

Published: Jan. 26, 2023

Air-purification utilizing an air filtration system is vital in maintaining optimum interior quality, despite the highly polluted that anthropogenic activities have exacerbated. Since constituents of pollutants are so unstable and diverse, conventional air-filtering materials made glass fibres or non-biodegradable polymers facing a considerable dilemma completely removing particulate finer size like PM2.5 gaseous harmful chemicals, CO2, other contaminants. These synthetic likewise non-biodegradable, resulting their disposal landfills. Therefore, developing fully biodegradable filtering for purification undeniably urgent. Cellulose widely dispersed natural biopolymer due to its porous, sustainable surface-modifiable nature, it has demonstrated extraordinary relevance numerous fields, including as high-performance system. In present review, we discussed significance, characteristics, functioning ability pure surface functionalized cellulose derivatives-based filter remove matter, volatile organic compounds CO2. addition, different composite filters/membranes using derivatives also been discussed. Furthermore, tried investigate mechanism absorption removal utilising cellulose-based filters. A comparative view properties cellulosic forms given here. one essential polymeric purifying industries. This study analyses impact various functionalisation techniques blending such carbon nanotubes, biopolymer, polymer matrix, etc. on performance resulted review provides data pertinent use based exhaustive analysis available literature. several future considerations

Hybrid Semiconductor Photocatalyst Nanomaterials for Energy and Environmental Applications: Fundamentals, Designing, and Prospects

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 7(8)

Published: June 27, 2023

Abstract The degradation of fossil fuel and worse environmental conditions leads to the emergence hybrid semiconductor (SC) nanomaterials as photocatalysts. Hybrid SCs have interesting physical, mechanical, optical, chemical, electronic characteristics. Due these properties’ absorption light transfer charge takes place frequently hence act multifunctional surface. These materials should be attributed their optical electrical properties surfaces in energy production, generation, remediation, sensing, etc. When combine with noble, non‐noble metal, metal oxide, some carbon‐based materials, they explore wide applications various fields. Photocatalysis is an effective sustainable technology reduce or fix concerns corrosion problems. By going through extensive literature review, few topics are focused on designing working mechanisms materials. In this way, present review article explains properties, surface‐interface engineering, design, (energy environmental) nanomaterials, emphasizing photocatalytic nature. Additionally, appealing directions, scientific challenges, reasons behind poor stability SC photocatalyst for discussed. Finally, concluding remarks current challenges future prospects domain highlighted.

Published: May 10, 2023

In the fast-developing time, accumulation of waste materials is always in an uptrend due to population increases and industrialization. This excessive harms ecosystem human beings by depleting water quality, air biodiversity. Further, use fossil fuel problem-related global warming, greenhouse gases are major challenge front world. Nowadays, scientists researchers more focused on recycling utilizing different like a municipal solid (MSW), agro-industrial etc. The added environment converted into valuable products or green chemicals using chemistry principles. These fields production energy, synthesis biofertilizers textile industry fulfil need present Here we focus circular economy considering value bioeconomic market. For this purpose, sustainable development bio-economy most promising alternative, which possible incorporating latest techniques microwave-based extraction, enzyme immobilization-based removal, bioreactor-based removal etc., for valorization food materials. conversion organic vermicomposting also realised earthworms. review article focuses various types (such as MSW, agricultural, industrial, household waste, etc.), management with current glitches expected solutions that have been discussed.

Interactions between humans and the physical environment in which they live have been studied extensively reason being that human activities to a great extent exert an influence on (biotic abiotic). Pollution other hand is introducing harmful substances into are damaging living organisms. Pollutants can be gases, liquids or solids produced concentrations higher than usual diminish quality of environment. Human adverse effects by polluting air we breathe, water drink even cause climatic changes. In terms provision manifold services, technology societal modernization, industrial revolution recorded outstanding success, it however, was beginning mass production pollutants emitted caused health our era, industrialization urbanization evidently reaching unprecedented disturbing proportions globally with anthropogenic pollution one major public hazards, accounting for almost 9 million deaths annually. This research therefore aims investigate environmental from activities, particularly water, climate change provide comprehensive understanding interconnectedness their consequences. Furthermore, since emerges as global concern developing countries; this study thus also highlights significance efficient wastewater treatment crucial strategy sustainable development, exploring its potential contribution mitigation.
