General description

1-Decanol is a flavor volatile identified in tomato juice, heated beef fat and parmesan cheese.

Application


  • Electroextraction of methylene blue from aqueous environmental samples using paper points coupled with hollow fiber membranes.: This research investigates a novel method for removing methylene blue from water using 1-Decanol. The findings demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach in environmental cleanup applications, emphasizing the versatility of 1-Decanol in extraction processes (Orlando et al., 2024).

  • Multi-objective optimization of ternary blends of Algal biodiesel-diesel-1-decanol to mitigate environmental pollution in powering a diesel engine using RSM, ANOVA, and artificial bee colony.: This study explores the use of 1-Decanol in creating eco-friendly fuel blends. The results indicate significant reductions in emissions and improvements in engine performance, demonstrating the environmental benefits of incorporating 1-Decanol in biodiesel formulations (Alruqi et al., 2023).
