Abstract:Emim HSO 4 , and [Bmim + OAc − ] on the SPONCOM liability of Sersia lancea biomass sample harvested from the Vaal River Mine, South Africa. The results of the derivative thermogravimetric (DTG) analysis of this indigenous biomass showed that it is highly liable to SPONCOM prior to treatment with ILs. Following treatment with all three ILs, the DTG results showed that ILs can potentially inhibit the SPONCOM liability of biomass, with [Bmim + OAc − ] showing the best inhibitory effects. With [Bmim + OAc − ] (IL-… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
