Heteroatom modified carbon dots (N, P, K): synthesis, surface functionalization, and prospects for soil‑fertility enhancement
Abstract: Heteroatom‑functionalized carbon dots (H‑CDs) have emerged as a class of zero‑dimensional carbon nanomaterials offering tunable optical, electronic, and catalytic properties through controlled nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium doping. This review highlights the chemistry and chemical‑technology dimensions of N‑, P‑, and K‑doped carbon dots (N‑CDs, P‑CDs, K‑CDs), focusing on their synthesis strategies, surface functionalization, and structure–property relationships. Conventional routes such as microwave‑assisted pyrolysis, hydrothermal carbonization, and one‑pot solvothermal methods are discussed, with …

Review on: Case study for the Construction of Particleboard Using Sugarcane Bagasse
Abstract: The major objective of this review paper was construction of particleboard using sugarcane bagasse. Particleboard is a wood-based panel product manufactured under pressure and temperature from the particles of wood or other any lignocellulose fibrous materials and a binder. It is used widely in the manufacture of furniture, floor underlayment and interior decoration. A primary lignocellulose material used in the particleboard industry is woods, but non-woods plant fibers and agro-based …

Catalyst: Free Synthesis of Bioactive Molecules via Green Chemical Principles
Abstract: This study explores the catalyst-free synthesis of bioactive molecules, emphasizing the application of green chemical principles. Traditional synthetic methods often rely on hazardous reagents, solvents, and metal catalysts, which can pose significant environmental and health risks. In contrast, the catalyst-free approach leverages benign reaction conditions, such as solvent-free systems, ambient temperature, and pressure, to achieve efficient and selective transformations. We present a comprehensive investigation into various bioactive molecule syntheses, including …

APPLICATION OF AGRO BASED RESUIDALS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF SURACTANT ON IOR USING MICROBES
Abstract: Utilization of surfactants for IOR is an accepted technique with high potential. However, technology application is frequently limited by cost. Biosurfactants (surface-active molecules produced by microorganisms) are commonly used in specialty markets such as food and textiles and have potential for IOR application. Currently, biosurfactants are not widely utilized in the petroleum industry due to high production costs associated with use of expensive substrates and inefficient product recovery methods. The …
