Through the isomerization of limonene, it is possible to obtain a variety of high-added-value terpenic compounds such as terpinolene, α-terpinene, and γ-terpinene, as well as <em>p</em>-cymene. These products have diverse applications in the food, cosmetic, polymer, and chemical industries. The present study focused on developing a sustainable approach to producing valuable chemicals from renewable resources such as limonene, particularly <em>via</em> the isomerization of limonene over modified sulfonated carbons as bio-based catalysts. The synthesis of sulfonated carbons from glucose was optimized through a Central Composite Rotatable Design (CCRD), which enabled the identification of correlations between synthesis conditions and catalytic performance. Thus, sulfonated carbon catalysts with larger surface areas and smaller pore diameters lead to higher results in limonene isomerization. Various characterization techniques were employed to elucidate the physicochemical properties of the synthesized carbons, confirming the presence of acidic surface groups and showing the influence of textural characteristics on the limonene isomerization. After a 2 hour reaction at 150 °C, a 96% conversion of limonene was achieved, resulting in a good overall yield of the major products, ranging from 40% to 50%, namely α-terpinene, γ-terpinene, and terpinolene. The obtained findings highlight that the use of sulfonated carbons has the potential to drive the sustainable transformation of limonene into valuable compounds.

Carbonaceous materials derived from residues are particularly interesting, as their synthesis has a smaller impact on the environment. In the present work, we report a preliminary study on the preparation of graphitic carbon made from cork waste powder modified with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). This is the first time such composites were prepared using pyrolysed/carbonised cork, from a powder residue of cork stopper production. This makes the process sustainable and in line with the circular economy. The composites were prepared by vacuum infiltration of the MNPs on pyrolysed cork powder, with a successive thermal treatment, resulting in a carbon material that retained the porous microstructure of the original cork, ideal for the absorption of pollutants or separation of oils and water, while also being magnetically separable afterwards. It was seen that post-infiltration heating was better in air than under nitrogen, with the nitrogen atmosphere and presence of highly porous carbon possibly partially reducing magnetite to FeO, with a reduction in magnetic properties. MNPs with different chemical compositions were tested – zinc ferrite (ZnFe<small><sub>2</sub></small>O<small><sub>4</sub></small>) and magnetite (Fe<small><sub>3</sub></small>O<small><sub>4</sub></small>) – with the magnetite composites showing the highest magnetisation. Moreover, magnetite particles of different dimensions were considered: 6, 9 and 15 nm; results indicated that the 9 nm magnetite NPs were the most easily infiltrated; the magnetisation, however, was higher for the composites with the 15 nm magnetite NPs (about 9 emu g<small><sup>−1</sup></small>), despite the oxide component comprising only around 12 wt% of the composite, due to their greater initial magnetisation. This value is higher than those of similar composites prepared using carbon from other natural sources. SEM analysis showed the presence of MNPs on the surface of the material, with the particles being on the nanometric scale and showing no aggregation on the micron scale. Composites prepared with these 15 nm MNPs also showed greater stability in both water and an organic solvent (chloroform) and were demonstrated to be magnetically separable from suspensions, making them the most suitable for environmental remediation applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":74745,"journal":{"name":"RSC sustainability","volume":" 2","pages":" 914-928"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlepdf/2025/su/d4su00442f?page=search","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143184573","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}

Every year, millions of tons of plastic are produced, resulting in a significant rise in plastic waste, which causes ecological and environmental problems. According to estimates, only around 10% of this waste plastic is now recycled. Plastic waste may be handled in two ways: recycling or converting it into energy. The first alternative, recycling, has several challenges, including the need for labor-intensive processes and concerns about water pollution, which may threaten its long-term sustainability. As a result, the second technique for turning waste plastic into energy has been developed, enhanced, and extensively researched. Pyrolysis is a technique that involves heating plastics at temperatures ranging from 455–700 °C without oxygen. This process yields high-calorific fuel that can be utilized as an alternative fuel. This study explores the thermal and catalytic cracking processes involved in waste plastic pyrolysis, focusing on crucial factors such as temperature, time, feedstock, reactor type, and catalyst that impact results such as oil production, gases, and heat.

This challenge is amplified by the sector's reliance on petroleum-based hydrocarbons as both fuel and feedstock. Electrochemical synthesis is widely viewed as an attractive method to decarbonize chemical manufacturing through the use of low-carbon electricity to drive redox reactions. Presently, much of the work in this area is focused on electrochemical strategies to produce commodity chemicals. In this work, we make the case that developing electrosynthetic methods for specialty chemical manufacturing is another attractive entry point for electrochemical process design. We further outline the results of a scoping study aimed at assessing the potential to decarbonize the production of several organic compounds that are widely used in specialty chemical manufacturing by using electrochemical reactors. Our approach entails mapping the supply chain for each compound back to its petrochemical feedstock, identifying opportunities to incorporate electrochemical transformations along the supply chain, and estimating the potential for decarbonization through the adoption of electrosynthetic schemes. The results show there already exist significant opportunities to decarbonize specialty chemical transformations today, even under very conservative assumptions about process efficiency and the carbon intensity of the input electricity.</p>","PeriodicalId":74745,"journal":{"name":"RSC sustainability","volume":" 1","pages":" 460-470"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlepdf/2025/su/d4su00375f?page=search","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142994288","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}
