Deep Eutectic Solvents

Abstract

The trends regarding the chemical industry for the twenty-first century are along several paths (Sheldon in J R Soc Interface 13:116, 2016) [1]. One trend is the replacement of fossil raw materials (oil, natural gas) or mined minerals with renewable sources, such as biomass or recycled wastes. Sustainable processes for the valorization of waste biomass by its conversion to biofuels (biodiesel) via green processes are currently in the forefront of research.
