Development of a green and rapid ethanol-based HPLC assay for aspirin tablets and feasibility evaluation of domestically produced bioethanol in Thailand as a sustainable mobile phase

Green Processing and Synthesis, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 14(1)

Опубликована: Янв. 1, 2025

Abstract Despite the growing trend of using ethanol as a greener alternative to hazardous solvents like methanol and acetonitrile in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis, no ethanol-based assay has been developed for aspirin tablets, nor potential domestically produced bioethanol mobile phase explored – until now. This study introduces novel HPLC assesses feasibility locally bioethanol. The optimized method, featuring 40% (v/v) ethanol–water adjusted pH 3.6 with glacial acetic acid, 15-cm C18 column at 40°C UV detection 237 nm, successfully separated its degradation product, salicylic 5 min. It demonstrated excellent linearity (0.1–0.6 mg·mL −1 , r ² = 0.9997), sensitivity (LOD 0.01 LOQ 0.03 ), accuracy, precision, interference from excipients. method’s performance on commercial tablets aligned official pharmacopoeial methods. In case fuel-grade (>99.5% purity) derived sugarcane molasses or cassava local manufacturers Thailand, chromatographic analytical results matched those obtained imported ethanol, validating effectiveness. innovative approach not only reduces costs dependence but also supports bio-circular-green economies promotes greener, more sustainable practices.

Biomass energy has emerged as a vital renewable source in the global transition towards sustainable development, aligning with United Nations development goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 7 (affordable and clean energy) 13 (climate action). This study evaluates biomass energy’s contributions by integrating real SI-unit-based data on usage China, India, Denmark, Germany, Brazil, Namibia, Ghana. An interpretative review was employed, incorporating primarily qualitative analysis supplemented quantitative of deployment, cost assessments, policy evaluations. The findings reveal that contributes 8% to China’s mix (500 TWh), 12% India (370 20% Denmark (43 27% Brazil (160 yet its expansion faces economic, technological, challenges. integrates cutting-edge catalysts (e.g., ZnO, TiO2, Ni) nanotechnology applications nanocatalysts, nanomembranes) enhance efficiency. A comparative technical combustion, anaerobic digestion, pyrolysis, gasification highlights most efficient process (70–85%), lowest carbon emissions (30–50 kg CO2/GJ) but requiring higher capital investment (USD 0.07–0.14/kWh). concludes recommendations, emphasizing targeted subsidies, international collaboration, infrastructure investments improve adoption globally.

Microalgae to Biofuel: Cutting‐Edge Harvesting and Extraction Methods for Sustainable Energy Solution

Energy Science & Engineering, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Апрель 22, 2025

ABSTRACT The increasing price and demand for fossil fuels are driven by their depletion, greenhouse gas emissions, industrial air pollution. As a result, the search renewable alternatives has gained serious attention. Microalgae provide sustainable alternative biofuel production, offering high growth rates, significant oil yields productivity, nontoxic nature, higher photosynthesis efficiencies, ability to thrive on nonarable land. Chlorella vulgaris Scenedesmus dimorphus strains were chosen this study develop effective harvesting extraction methods energy. Three types of used optimize slurry yields, viz. flocculation, high‐speed refrigerated centrifugation, microfiltration. Moreover, two considered enhance efficiency: Soxhlet direct boiling method. centrifugation method provides fastest rate highest followed membrane separation, while though slower, is more cost‐effective easier perform. optimizes process effectively rupturing microalgae cell walls. shows recovery efficiency 0.76 g per liter media centrifuge, consisting 12%–40% content in overall weight; 12.7% was extracted using extraction, 18.7% On other hand, better 0.81 22%–51% weight, there 23.8% soxhlet 26.4% every 10 sample compared . Future research should focus like reduce production costs, maximize tackle global energy crisis.
