1 Green Solvents- A sustainable option Sangeeta Srivastava Godavari Biorefineries Limited Mumbai

2 Solvents!!!! Playamajor rolein manyareas of technology Provide many opportunities for improvement of environmental aspects. Represent a very large proportion of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released into the atmosphere. Used in coating, cleaning, extraction, reaction, energy control, mixing etc.

3 What are Green Solvents? Chemicals arising from fermentation and renewable resources Minimize the use and generation of hazardous substances They meet the goal to minimize environmental impact Therefore They are A sustainable Option.

4 Market of Green & Biosolvent The market size, in terms of value--about USD 5.58 Billion in 2015 and is projected to reach USD 8.17 Billion by 2020, at a CAGR of 7.94% between 2015 and The green and bio-solvents market, along with its applications, witnessed a moderate-to-high growth in the past few years and is likely to continue so in the in the coming years. Bio-solvents have made rapid incursions into a variety of end-use segments such as printing inks, coatings, edible oil adhesives, food processing, and cleaning products, among others. Regulatory mandates for the printing ink industry have set stringent guidelines for the use of solvents, thereby driving the increased use of bio-solvents in the printing ink industry.

5 Principles of Green Chemistry Prevention Inherently safer chemistry for accident prevention Atom Economy Real-time analysis for pollution prevention Less Hazardous chemical synthesis Design of Degradation Green Chemistry Designing safer chemicals Catalysts Safer Solvents & Auxiliaries Reduce Derivatives Design of Energy efficiency Use of Renewable RM

6 Use of Renewable RM-Green Solvent A natural resource that can replenish itself over time Feed stock should be renewable rather than non-renewable Reduce the consumption of fossil fuel Renewable Raw-materials Agricultural Forestry Animal or microbial products Examples of renewable agricultural raw materials which are used industrially Cellulose Starch Sugar Oils and Fats

7 Commonly used solvents Preferred Usable Undesirable Water Cyclohexane Pentane Acetone Methylcyclohexane Hexane(s) Ethanol Toluene Di-isopropyl ether 2-propanol Heptane Diethyl ether 1-propanol Methyl t-butyl ether Dicholoromethane Ethyl acetate/ethyl lactate Isooctane Dicholoroethane Iso-propyl acetate Acetonitrile Chloroform Methanol 2-methyltetrahydrofuran Dimethyl formamide Methyl ethyl ketone Tetrahydrofuran N-methylpyrrolidinone 1-butanol Xylenes Pyridine t-butanol Dimethyl sulfoxide Dimethyl acetamide

8 Red Category Solvents Red Category Solvents Flash Point ( O C) Reason Pentane -49 Very low flash point, good alternative available Hexane(s) -23 More toxic than the alternative heptane Di-isopropyl ether -12 Very low flash point, good alternative ethers available Diethyl ether -40 Very low flash point Dicholoroethane 15 Carcinogen Chloroform N/A Carcinogen Dimethyl formamide 57 Toxic N-methylpyrrolidinone 86 Toxic Pyridine 20 Dimethyl acetamide 70 Toxic carcinogen, toxicity, very low threshold limit value TLV for worker exposures Benzene -11 Carcinogen, toxic to humans and environment

9 Solvents when manufactured! Green Solvent Petroleum Solvent Rate of reaction Slow Rapid Quality of Product Reaction conditions Use of resources Produces product with other impurities, which can be purified Gentle temperature & pressure Uses renewable resources based on plant material. Much purer product High temperature & pressure Uses finite resources based on crude oil.
