| Details | Environmentally harmless technologies are essential for the global environmental protection. However, most of chemical processes in chemical industries still remain low efficient and environmentally harmless; where E-factor (kg waste/kg product) of small chemical processes remains generally 5 – 100. In addition, conventional chemical processes involve the usage of organic solvents and toxic materials so that these processes would be replaced with environment friendly materials. To improve or replace such inefficient and harmless processes with more efficient and environmentally friendly processes, the development of recyclable and environmentally friendly solid-phase catalysts without using organic solvents is a key approach. In the present study, the potential of hydrothermal flow reactors, which would be useful for development of solid- state catalysts in hydrothermal conditions, will be described. |
