Nevertheless, GELM instability continues to be a critical concern regarding the operational viability of using GELMs for the separation and recovery of solutes from wastewater in an industrial context. For example, instability of GELMs can result in rupture of the membrane, lowering the effectiveness in the extraction of solutes over the entire extraction train, and further decreases the recovery of solutes during extraction of the target solute or solutes of interest. For enhanced extraction performance, and therefore, recovery of solute/s, GELMs must be stable throughout the extraction process. A carrier (extractant) is typically dispersed into the membrane phase to create reversible complexes with the solute of interest in order to effect solubilization and transport of solute in a selective manner between immiscible liquid membrane phases; similarly, the stability of emulsions is mainly a function of emulsifiers, surfactants, stabilizers, and variables related to formulation of the emulsion or process parameters. The review presents the parameters that affect the stability and performance of GELMs, and also discusses the useful COSMO-RS (Conductor-Like Screening Model for Real Solvents) tool to select effective formulations of GELMs. This study will serve as an important reference for sustainable technologies focused on separation and recovery of solutes from industrial effluent.

This review provides a detailed summary of GCD production, methodologies, structural and optical features, along with its application as a catalyst for dye removal under light irradiation. Furthermore, a rigorous comparison is made between traditional dye-removal methods and photocatalytic systems using GCDs, emphasizing their higher degradation efficiency, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness. The study concludes with future directions for improving photocatalytic performance through heteroatom doping, surface modification, and hybrid composites to enhance sustainable water treatment technologies. In addition to reviewing the synthesis and photocatalytic activity of GCDs, this study emphasizes their practical application in industrial-scale wastewater treatment systems, particularly in the textile and printing industries. The current study is unique in that it focuses solely on green-precursor-based carbon dots and their mechanism-driven function in dye degradation, a topic that has not been thoroughly studied.

The study employed both electrochemical (Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) and Potentiodynamic Polarization (PDP)), and gasometric methods. The adsorption of the extract onto steel surface was thoroughly investigated using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), while the adsorption properties of its phytocompounds were investigated using theoretical approaches. <em>Cola lepidota</em> functioned as an effective mixed-type anticorrosion material, with its efficiency significantly determined by concentration, temperature, and duration of exposure. The efficiency of the extract improved with concentration, achieving optimal values of 98.5 % (EIS) and 91.7 % (gasometry) at 2.0 g/L. However, it decreased with elevating temperatures and prolonged exposure. The adsorption of the extract and its anticorrosive properties on the steel surface was subsequently confirmed by SEM and FTIR analyses. Thermodynamic data indicated that while some inhibitor molecules underwent chemical adsorption at elevated concentrations, the predominant mechanism was physisorption with exothermic characteristics. Furthermore, quantum chemical descriptors provided insights into the detailed understanding of the stability and reactivity of some identified phytocompounds in the extract, while molecular dynamics simulations shed light on the specific adsorption behavior and orientation of the phytocompounds, thereby enhancing our comprehension of the protective mechanism of <em>Cola lepidota</em> seed extract. This research demonstrates a sustainable \"waste-to-wealth\" approach by transforming an underutilized waste product into a highly effective and sustainable corrosion inhibitor, advancing the drive for green solutions to corrosion mitigation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101197,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Chemistry One World","volume":"9 ","pages":"Article 100162"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145738020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
