What is Role of CO 2 Triggered Switchable Polarity Solvents and Supercritical Solvents During Biofuel Extraction about?

Switchable-polarity solvents (SPS) or "reversible ionic liquids" usually change their polarity from lower to higher when applied with a trigger such as acids, oxidants, CO 2 , etc. Among all, CO 2 is a non-toxic and eco-friendly trigger to synthesize the switchable materials. These CO 2 triggered SPS also find application in the extraction of bio-oils from the organic bio-masses. Due to their non-toxicity, low volatility, and reversible polarity, these are viable solvents for bio-fuel extraction. SPS like N-ethylbutylamine (EBA) and dipropyl amine are used for extraction of bio-oil from microalgae. SPS also acts as recyclable capture-electrolyte media for CO 2 capture to produce syngas. 1, 8-Diazabicyclo [5.4.0] undec-7-ene (DBU), another switchable solvent undergoes transesterification directly to produce biodiesel.On the other hand, supercritical fluids are also reported as an excellent media to extract bio-fuels from biomasses that are potential and renewable feedstock for production of bio-fuels. In fact, super-critical carbon dioxide (SC-CO 2 ) with an azeotropic mixture of co-solvents (Hexane + Ethanol) is utilized for the extraction of algal bio-oil. Moreover, supercritical
