The maximum deviation observed in the density of the liquid solutions of methyl lactate with 1-heptanol was 0.28%, indicating the effectiveness of the CPA model in accurately modeling the density. Additionally, the researchers calculated the excess molar volumes and deviation in viscosity for the studied liquid mixtures. The analysis of these measurements revealed that the solutions of methyl lactate with 1-alkanols exhibited positive excess molar volumes across the entire concentration range. On the other hand, negative viscosity deviations were observed for the mentioned alkanols. These findings suggest that there are weak intermolecular associations within the liquid solutions, with weaker bond strength observed in higher alkanols.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Solution Chemistry","volume":"53 11","pages":"1462 - 1475"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10953-024-01389-1.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141104357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Factors affecting partitioning in ATPSs, such as molecular weight and polymer concentration, pH, temperature, hydrophobicity, and affinity, are also examined. The article then focuses on the application of ATPSs in protein and enzyme extraction, including continuous processing and scaling-up. The future prospects, challenges, and limitations of ATPSs in this field are discussed, along with the challenges associated with their use in industry. The results section highlights the potential of citrate green salts as an alternative to sulfate and phosphate salts in salt-based ATPSs and the need for more research on using ionic liquids as an additive in ATPS types for protein and enzyme extraction.
