TL;DR: A review of bio-based heterogeneous catalysts utilized for sustainable biodiesel production and their suitability for industrial application is presented in this article, where the use of these biomass derived catalysts provides a greener synthesis route for biodiesel synthesis.

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel acid catalyst was prepared via sulfonation of incompletely carbonized coconut shell using concentrated sulfuric acid, and the design of experiments were performed using four factor-three-level central composite design coupled with response surface methodology to evaluate the interaction between two factors to determine the optimum process conditions.

TL;DR: The textile industry has been rapidly progressing over the years, leading to an increasing volume of water usage that contributes to the large production of textile wastewater as mentioned in this paper, leading to a significant increase in water usage.

TL;DR: In this paper , the effect of chemical treatment on the structural, thermal, and mechanical properties of sugarcane bagasse as filler for starch-based bioplastic was evaluated, and it was shown that alkaline treatment improved surface roughness and freed it of surface impurities.
