However, efficient extraction of these intracellular lipids remains a critical challenge. This study investigated pulsed electric field (PEF) and ultrasonic treatments for disrupting the robust cell walls of <i>Nannochloropsis</i> microalgae and extracting intracellular oils. A custom PEF setup with corrugated steel electrodes treated <i>Nannochloropsis salina</i> slurries under varying electric field strengths, pulse frequencies, processing times, and biomass concentrations. The Taguchi method optimized PEF parameters to maximize oil yields. Optimal PEF conditions of 20 kV/cm, 400 Hz, 30 min, and 20 g/L facilitated enhanced oil extraction by reversibly electroporating the cells. After PEF treatment, a solvent extraction process using chloroform and methanol recovered the released oils, yielding a maximum of 0.52 g<sub>oil</sub>/g<sub>dry biomass</sub> while consuming 39.6 kJ/kg of energy. Notably, PEF outperformed ultrasonic treatment, achieving higher oil yields with minimal temperature rise that could degrade cellular components. Microscopic observations confirmed oil droplet release and cell membrane permeabilization after PEF, without significant cell debris. The results showcase PEF as an efficient, non-thermal, and environmentally friendly pretreatment approach for extracting oils from robust microalgae like <i>Nannochloropsis</i>, making it viable for microalgae-based biofuel and industrial applications involving oil extraction.</p>","PeriodicalId":659,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Polymers and the Environment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141549309","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}

These foams are derived from chemically modified soybean oil-based polyol (SBO-polyol) obtained through the formation of oxirane followed by the opening of the oxirane reaction. Polyurethane foam is generally used in construction, furniture, and automobile industries but is highly flammable and releases toxic fumes in combustion. In this study, an efficient synergistic effect of non-halogen flame-retardant (FR) melamine salt, 2-carboxyethyl(phenyl)phosphinic acid melamine salt (CMA) was synthesized from 2-carboxyethyl(phenyl)phosphinic acid (CEPP) and melamine (MA). Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy characterized the chemical structure of CMA. Three different FRs, MA, melamine cyanurate (MC), and CMA were separately introduced in increasing quantities for the foam preparation to suppress the flame during combustion. The influence of these FRs on the thermal properties, flame retardancy, morphology, physical, and mechanical properties of the prepared RPUFs was studied through closed cell content, apparent density, compression test, horizontal burning test, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and gel permeation chromatography (GPC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

In this study, a novel composite sorbent has been synthesized for the concurrent mitigation of iron, lead, and zinc metal ions from synthetic wastewater systems. For this purpose, chitosan with alternate molecular weight (low, medium, and high) and with hydroxyl and amine functional groups was employed as a substrate. The successful anchoring of the organic compound citric acid was achieved with the glutaraldehyde crosslinker. The medium molecular weight chitosan-citric acid (medium Cit-CS) has been evaluated to achieve optimal metal uptake of 243.90, 3.93, and 144.93 mg g<sup>−1</sup> for zinc, lead, and iron from intricate Zn dominant adsorbate system. Accordingly, it was ascertained that other alternative ions in the adsorbate system significantly alter the sorption patterns. The validation of the chemisorption process was effectively established through the consistency observed in the pattern of adsorption as well as the successful modeling via the pseudo-second-order (PSO) approach. Following this, the desorption of metal ions was effective with simple basic and acidic eluents and for a three-cycle-based simultaneous regeneration. In summary, the findings demonstrate the promising performance of the sorbent for metal ions eradication from intricate solutions.</p>","PeriodicalId":659,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Polymers and the Environment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141496075","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}
