Compared to coal-based AC, biomass-derived AC reduces environmental impact while maintaining high porosity and adsorption capacity. Its synthesis involves carbonization and activation, enhancing porosity and adsorption properties. Efficiency depends on particle size, surface area, pore structure, and functional groups. Smaller particles and higher surface areas enhance adsorption, whereas micropores serve as primary adsorption sites. Functional groups influence chemical interactions. Regeneration methods extend usability. AC-based catalysts improve hydrogen production and biodiesel synthesis. In wastewater treatment, iron oxide–impregnated AC enhances dye removal, whereas titania/AC composites boost photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants. AC also plays a crucial role in carbon dioxide (CO2) capture, with potassium hydroxide (KOH)-synthesized AC optimizing micropore formation. AC faces challenges in biomass supply, logistics, regeneration efficiency, and adsorption selectivity, requiring innovative activation methods and surface modifications.","PeriodicalId":48623,"journal":{"name":"ChemBioEng Reviews","volume":"12 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144273477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address this, there is an urgent need for the development and continuous improvement of cost-effective and eco-friendly biodiesel production technologies. This paper comprehensively reviews biodiesel production techniques, focusing on the transesterification reactor. Recent advancements in reactor technologies, including tubular/plug-flow and rotating reactors, are discussed in detail. The merits and limitations of each reactor type are critically analyzed to provide insights into their applicability for biodiesel production. Life cycle assessment and techno-economic analysis of biodiesel production using reactors are discussed. Furthermore, the paper explores the prospects of developing innovative reactor systems, emphasizing sustainability by integrating biorefinery concepts using waste feedstocks. This review will guide future research and development efforts toward scalable and sustainable biodiesel production technologies.","PeriodicalId":48623,"journal":{"name":"ChemBioEng Reviews","volume":"12 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143865840","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review scrutinizes contemporary developments in nanocatalyst technology pertaining to biodiesel synthesis, emphasizing the effectiveness, specificity, and ecological sustainability of various nanocatalysts, which include metal oxides, magnetic solid catalysts, and an array of other nanostructured materials. These catalysts have exhibited substantial potential in augmenting the efficiency and selectivity of biodiesel production, attributable to their enhanced catalytic performance, extensive surface area, and resilience to saponification, rendering them appropriate for diverse feedstocks such as recycled oils, animal fats, and plant oils. Notwithstanding the obstacles associated with production costs and recycling procedures, recent progress in economically viable manufacturing techniques and sustainable recovery methods, including magnetic separation approaches, offers significant promise. A thorough lifecycle assessment (LCA) remains imperative to appraise the environmental and economic viability of employing nanocatalysts, taking into account parameters, such as raw material acquisition, energy utilization, and waste generation. The review accentuates the superior efficacy of nanocatalysts in comparison to traditional heterogeneous catalysts, underscoring their capacity to expedite biodiesel synthesis and facilitate a transition toward a more environmentally sustainable energy paradigm.","PeriodicalId":48623,"journal":{"name":"ChemBioEng Reviews","volume":"12 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143865649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Efforts to improve the design of HXs over the years have resulted in heat transfer enhancement with the penalty of pressure loss (∆P). Researchers have implemented various methods to enhance heat transfer. These methods have been categorized based on the need for external power. Active heat transfer methods require external energy, whereas passive heat transfer methods operate without an external power source. Increasing the effective surface area for heat transfer or inducing turbulence through surface alterations can improve passive heat transfer, leading to secondary flow. Of all the surface alterations, the corrugated tubes are particularly significant for enhancing the heat transfer in a turbulent flow, as they result in a reasonable increase in ΔP. Apart from an increase in ΔP, the initial cost of corrugated tube HX is higher than that of simple HX. Therefore, one should not write off the economic analysis of any passive enhancement technique. Various applications increasingly use corrugation in systems like the primary and secondary heat transport systems of nuclear reactors, refrigeration, and other industries. This paper critically reviews thermal investigations for improving heat transfer and a comprehensive economic analysis of corrugated tube HXs.","PeriodicalId":48623,"journal":{"name":"ChemBioEng Reviews","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143396778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A thorough explanation of the DES s’ reaction mechanism and biomass-treating capabilities is provided, shedding light on how green pretreatment methods can be applied to agricultural wastes in order to form high-value products. In view of that, the influences of crucial properties of DES like viscosity, density, and recycling ability of DES are well analyzed. This review article's next goal is to compile the most recent developments for the years 2018–2023 on DES-based valorization of agricultural wastes into a range of products, including biogas such as biohydrogen, liquid biofuels like bioethanol and butanol, and platform chemicals and reagents that are followed by novel materials. A discussion of the current criticalities and prospective avenues for further research concluded the paper. For this reason, having a thorough grasp of product value in one review paper from the potential of DES to agricultural wastes will be very helpful to the readers.","PeriodicalId":48623,"journal":{"name":"ChemBioEng Reviews","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143397212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
