Eco-friendly technique

A facile hydrothermal-aided process is demonstrated to prepare an analcime 3-dimensional (3D) network using recycled aluminum foil as an aluminum source without using an organic template. The prepared material was characterized by different techniques. An electrode/electrolyte interface with a 3D network structure allows for better contact and improves the kinetics of the charge transfer.

The corrosion inhibition of mild steel alloys is of tremendous technological importance due to their increased industrial applications. Potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques were used to establish the effect of different concentrations of HCl on the corrosion behavior of mild steel. A study was conducted on the inhibition of dissolution for a mild steel alloy in the most corrosive concentration of HCl (5 M) by adding different concentrations of aqueous extract of Hibiscus sabdariffa plant (named karkade or rosselle) as an ecofriendly inhibitor.

In the present work, ZnO:Dy3 nanophosphors were synthesized by a simple, cost effective and ecofriendly route using the aqueous extract of Azadirachta Indica leaves. The prepared ZnO:Dy3 nanophosphors were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transformed Infra-Red (FTIR), Raman, UV-VIS diffuse reflectance (UVDR) spectroscopy and Photoluminescence (PL), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX).

Castor (Ricinus communis L.) experienced serious declines in yield caused by wilt pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ricini. To control the wilt pathogen, commonly fungicides are used, which cause undesirable toxic effect on the environment. To minimize the pollution impact, there is an urgent need to develop alternative ecofriendly strategies. Therefore, to fill these knowledge gaps and to investigate potential botanical's efficacy on the wilt pathogen F. oxysporum f.sp. ricini, an in vitro bioassay was conducted. Twentysix botanicals were extracted at two different concentrations viz.

Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Penz. and Sacc. is associated with aonla, in that fruit rot of aonla is one of the contributing factors for this low productivity. Therefore, the ecofriendly and environmentally safe management of fruit rot disease with the use of plant extracts is necessary. Different plant extracts evaluated under in vitro condition against the mycelial growth of Colletotrichum gloeosporioide. Plant extracts viz., Allium sativum (82.74 %), Azadirachta indica (80.77 %), Ocimum sanctum (77.1 %) mycelial growth inhibition of fungus under laboratory dual culture technique.

Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Penz. and Sacc. is associated with aonla, in that fruit rot of aonla is one of the contributing factors for this low productivity. Therefore, the ecofriendly and environmentally safe management of fruit rot disease with the use of bioagents is necessary. Different bioagents and plant extracts evaluated under in vitro condition against the mycelial growth of Colletotrichum gloeosporioide revealed that fungal bio agents viz., Trichoderma viride (85.03 %) T. harzianum (82.56 %) and Trichodermah hamatum (81.08 %) mycelial growth inhibition of C.

Pectin yield is usually depends upon the extraction conditions such as temperature, extraction time, pH, drying method and most importantly type of extraction solvents. During present study, the enzymatic extraction of pectin from apple pomace has been shown to achieve higher recovery of pectin and is regarded as an environmentally safe technique. Different ecofriendly enzymes viz., cellulase, hemicellulase, amylase and xylanase were added at different concentrations to rehydrated apple pomace powder for different time.
