Journal ArticleDOI

Critical challenges in biohydrogen production processes from the organic feedstocks

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of bio-hydrogen production using organic waste materials through fermentation, biophotolysis, microbial electrolysis cell and gasification is discussed and analyzed from a technological perspective.
Journal ArticleDOI

Removal of phthalates from aqueous solution by semiconductor photocatalysis: A review.

TL;DR: This review explores the use of semiconductor photocatalysis as an efficient and promising solution towards achieving removal and degradation of phthalate esters with a view towards pilot scale and industrial deployment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polymer-supported phosphoramidites: highly efficient and recyclable catalysts for asymmetric hydrogenation of dimethylitaconate and dehydroamino acids and esters

TL;DR: Several novel phosphoramidites have been prepared by reaction of the primary amines para-vinylaniline, ortho-anisidine, 2-methoxyphenyl(4-vinylbenzyl)amine, 8-aminoquinoline and 3vinyl-8-aminoline with (S)-1,1′-bi-2-naphthylchlorophosphite, in the presence of base as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploring the photocatalytic hydrogen production potential of titania doped with alumina derived from foil waste

TL;DR: In this paper, the multifunctional potential of a catalyst previously synthesized for thermal processes is explored by investigating its activity for photocatalytic production of H 2 from glycerol, a byproduct from the manufacture of bio-diesel.
