Intensified continuous extraction of switchable hydrophilicity solvents triggered by carbon dioxide†
Abstract
Green solvent utilization and recovery enabled by switchable hydrophilicity solvents (SHSs), using carbon dioxide as the switching trigger, offer intriguing advantages in sustainable chemistry. To further elevate SHSs, an intensified continuous flow strategy is presented, providing an accurate in situ reaction monitoring and a scalable green solvent extraction route.
