The transition toward sustainable conservation practices requires a scientifically ground approach to substituting traditional solvent systems with green alternatives. This study aims facilitate the adoption of solvents by restoration professionals systematically evaluating their chemical compatibility and toxicological safety. By integrating Hansen solubility parameters (HSP), Relative Energy Difference (RED), Integrated Toxicity Index (ITI), we identified high potential for replacing Cremonesi mixtures. analysis revealed that ether-based solvents, such as 2,5-dimethyltetrahydrofuran cyclopentyl methyl ether, exhibit affinity mixtures, while esters fatty acid (FAMEs) offer balanced combination low toxicity. However, also underscores significant gaps in safety data (SDS) many innovative highlighting need further evaluation before widespread implementation.

Traditional water purification systems often rely on synthetic materials that pose environmental risks due to their non-biodegradability and the potential release of harmful substances. To address these concerns, natural polymer-based membranes are being developed as a sustainable environmentally friendly alternative for treatment biodegradability, low toxicity, chemical versatility. These particularly suitable removing wide range contaminants high selectivity permeability. Despite benefits, challenges such improving mechanical strength, durability, resistance fouling persist. Ongoing research continues optimize performance electrospun meet modern demands. For this purpose, crosslinking via thermal initiators azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane)dihydrochloride (V50) by glutaraldehyde (GA) vapor have been studied methacrylated chitosan alginate. In addition, biocharcoal has introduced into enhance functional properties. The development combined with presents promising scalable solution purification, playing crucial role in reducing pollution preserving vital resources future generations. study, we demonstrate effect plays key maintaining stability alginate-based an aqueous environment while enhancing adsorption capacity methylene blue dye, making them applications.
