Liquid-liquid extraction is a widely used technique for aqueous fermentation systems and offers significant cost-saving potential, especially if extraction could be performed directly from the fermentation broth without prior cell separation. However, this is often hindered by the formation of \"crud\" — a deposit or emulsion at the interface between two partially settled phases. This study investigates the liquid-liquid phase separation of <em>Corynebacterium glutamicum</em> DM 1933 fermentation broths using five different solvents. We systematically examined the impact of cell surface properties, modified through nutrient concentration, on crud formation. In addition, the variation in salt concentration and pH after fermentation was analysed. Our findings show that the present nutrient concentration influences the cell surface properties and, consequently, crud formation. A more hydrophilic cell surface was present at a lower phosphate concentration, whereas a more hydrophobic cell surface was measured for a lower nitrogen and iron concentration. With a more hydrophobic cell surface, the fermentation broth showed a large crud phase, while a decrease in crud formation could be seen for fermentation broths with a more hydrophilic cell surface. Furthermore, the crud formation is influenced by the pH, cell and salt concentration and strongly by the used solvent.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":296,"journal":{"name":"Current Research in Green and Sustainable Chemistry","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100448"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143548532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The application of cleaner green solvents can cause drastic alleviation in the toxic wastes produced from the industrial scale synthesis of MOFs. Many green solvents (bio-derived and non-bio-derived) have found their applications in different areas of scientific research.

Green chemistry was paired with the synthesis method as a sustainable approach to valorize blast furnace slag (BFS) while addressing the growing demand for high-performance zeolites. This study investigated the role of acid-leached BFS as a precursor and explored the advantages of microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis over conventional methods. The synthesis temperature and time were varied to explore their effects on the physicochemical, textural, and structural properties of the synthesized ZSM-5 products, with commercial ZSM-5 serving as a reference material for comparison. The favourable synthesis conditions were found to be 180 °C and 13 h, yielding a crystalline ZSM-5 product characterized by well-defined cubic prism shapes with microsized intergrown rectangular crystals. Furthermore, the synthesized ZSM-5 had a mesoporous structure with an average crystallinity of 52.4 % and a low specific surface area (108.4 m<sup>2</sup>/g) compared to the reference sample (436.4 m<sup>2</sup>/g). The use of microwave irradiation significantly reduced the synthesis time and energy consumption while preserving the structural integrity of the zeolite framework. Moreover, the synthesis temperature strongly affected the crystal size, while the synthesis time affected the morphology. However, neither the synthesis temperature nor the synthesis time affected the chemical composition of the products. This study highlighted the potential of BFS as a low-cost, sustainable feedstock for zeolite synthesis and the effectiveness of microwave-assisted methods in improving process efficiency.

Key dyeing conditions, including temperature (30–100 °C), duration (10–60 min), and pH (3–11), were optimized to maximize color absorption and uniformity. Color performance was evaluated through spectrophotometry (L∗, a∗, b∗ values) and K/S measurements.
