“…Sulphur dioxide is one of the main causes of acid rain which needs attention because it can be one of the serious global environmental problems. Adsorption of SO2 gas using activated carbon material has been carried out by many researchers [43,44]. Most of the production of activated carbon is carried out using chemical methods.…”

The use of organic waste as bio-sorbent has been carried out by many researchers in the world. Furthermore, the utilization of plants for treating wastewater is also commonly found in various environmental applications. Nevertheless, a review of the ability of banana plants (Musa spp.) as bio-sorbent to eliminate gaseous pollutants is rarely found and has not been fully understood. In this paper, lignocellulosic biomass from banana plants (bark, stem, leaves, peels, etc) was identified and reviewed. Sorption potential was discussed and taken from various literature which then evaluated to discuss the potential and ability of banana plants as sorbent material for treating gaseous pollutants. Assessment and measurement methods were also discussed to obtain the best sorbent in removing gaseous pollutants. This research was conducted by reviewing scientific articles that discussed the use of lignocellulosic materials derived from banana plants for absorbing various gases. Almost all articles described the manufacture of adsorbents from banana plants that were used to treat wastewater but not many researchers have tried to develop a commercially adsorbent for gas-shaped pollutants. This research is expected to provide essential information for the readers to develop advanced materials used to control environmental pollution especially gaseous pollutants.

This study aim to analyse Biodrugs extracted from kiwi fruit by FT-IR and GC-MS. Kiwi fruit is rich in nutrients and trace elements. In this study, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) technologies were carried out to detect and analyze the chemical composition of kiwi fruit. FT-IR detection revealed that the main chemical components of kiwi fruit were cellulose, phenol, alcohol, alkane and alkenen. GC-MS detection, showed high contents of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural; alpha-lrhamnopyranose; 2,3-dihydro-3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-4(H)-pyran-4-one; D-alanine, Npropargyloxycarbonyl-, isohexyl ester; resorcinol; dodecanoic acid, 3-hydroxy-; melezitose and furfural. These compositions can be used within thefood, cosmetic and chemical engineering fields. Bioactive constituents, Biodrugs, Kiwi fruit

“…Activated carbon was able to remove sulfur but the rest of the inorganic elements and proteins were still present in a significant amount. Activated carbon is known for its good properties to remove sulfur [53][54][55] but not inorganic cations such as Ca, Mg or K. 56…”

Wheat bran is a lignocellulosic waste of milling industry. It contains hemicelluloses which can be valorized into arabitol and xylitol via a few-step approach. It begins with extraction and hydrolysis of hemicelluloses to produce a solution of xylose and arabinose along with proteins and inorganic salts. This work focusses on the purification of sugars of this hydrolysate and the subsequent catalytic production of sugar alcohols. A purification process based on the recovery of sugars by anionic extraction with a boronic acid, followed by back-extraction and a further refining step with ion exchange resins is described. After this process, a high purity sugars solution (~90%) free of inorganic elements and proteins was obtained. The feasibility of the process was also highlighted by a successful recycling of the organic phase containing the boronic acid. The hydrogenation of purified sugars was then performed over Ru/H-ZSM-5. A high yield into pentitols of ~70% with 100% selectivity was achieved. Importantly, the catalytic hydrogenation of sugars in the hydrolysate prior to purification did not occur. We determined that proteins caused the deactivation of the catalyst and consequently the inhibition of the production of sugar alcohols.
