Green Sustainable Process for Chemical and Environmental Engineering and Science: Plant-Derived Green Solvents: Properties and Applications provide a comprehensive review on the green solvents such as bio solvents, terpenes, neem, alkyl phenols, cyrene, limenone, and ethyl lactate, etc. which are derived from plant sources. Chapters discuss introduction, properties, and advantages to the practical use of plant-derived solvents. Plants-derived solvents are an excellent choice for real-world applications to reduce the environmental and health safety considerations. This book is the result of commitments by top researchers in the field of biosolvents from various backgrounds and fields of expertise. This book is a one-stop reference for plant solvents and overviews up-to-date accounts in the field of modern applications and the first book in this research community.

Asiri, Abdullah M.
Prof. Abdullah M. Asiri is the Head of the Chemistry Department at King Abdulaziz University since October 2009 and he is the founder and the Director of the Center of Excellence for Advanced Materials Research (CEAMR) since 2010 till date. He is the Professor of Organic Photochemistry. His research interest covers color chemistry, synthesis of novel photochromic and thermochromic systems, synthesis of novel coloring matters and dyeing of textiles, materials chemistry, nanochemistry and nanotechnology, polymers and plastics. A major achievement of Prof. Asiri is the discovery of tribochromic compounds, a class of compounds which change from slightly or colorless to deep colored when subjected to small pressure or when grind. This discovery was introduced to the scientific community as a new terminology published by IUPAC in 2000. This discovery was awarded a patent from European Patent office and from UK patent. He is also a member of the Editorial Board of various journals of international repute. He is the Vice- President of Saudi Chemical Society (Western Province Branch). He holds four USA patents, more than 800 Publications in international journals, seven book chapters, and ten books

Prof. Dr. Rajender Boddula currently serves as an Associate Professor, in the School of Sciences, at Woxsen University, Hyderabad, Telangana, India. He is also an Adjunct Professor, at Graphic Era Hill University, in India. He attained his MSc in Organic Chemistry, (Kakatiya University, 2008) and PhD from Kakatiya University and CSIR–Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, Hyderabad, India (2014). His doctoral work focused on polyaniline-based materials for supercapacitor and catalytic applications, which laid a strong interdisciplinary foundation for his research career. Following his doctorate, Dr. Boddula pursued a distinguished postdoctoral trajectory across several major global research centers. He was awarded the Chinese Academy of Sciences President’s International Fellowship (CAS-PIFI) and conducted research at the National Center for Nanoscience and Technology, in Beijing. He further refined his expertise as a postdoctoral researcher at the National Tsing-Hua University, in Taiwan, and at the Center for Advanced Materials, at Qatar University. His postdoctoral work encompassed advanced novel nanomaterials, drug delivery, catalysis, hydrogen energy, and CO2 valorization, driving sustainable solutions for energy and environmental challenges. Professor Boddula’ s major research interests span next-gen materials, green catalysis, environmental remediation, sustainable energy conversion & storage technologies, and hydrogen energy.
