The approach, known as artificial photosynthesis directed toward organic synthesis (APOS), represents a major step forward in sustainable chemical manufacturing.<\/p>\n<p>The novel process is driven by two inorganic semiconductor photocatalysts, which enable the decomposition of organic waste and water, facilitating the synthesis of useful organic compounds alongside the production of \u2018green\u2019 hydrogen.<\/p>\n<p>In their chemical experiments, the researchers successfully synthesised more than 25 different alcohol and ether products from various organic raw materials. These included analogues of an antidepressant and a hay fever medication. The APOS technique also demonstrated its ability to modify existing pharmaceuticals, such as a drug used to treat high lipid levels.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.europeanpharmaceuticalreview.com\/news\/249790\/sustainable-method-converting-waste-into-pharmaceuticals-developed\/\">European Pharmaceutical Review<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/3-674\/\">Sustainable method converting waste into pharmaceuticals developed<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[18113,575,893,7571],"class_list":["post-137972","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-chemical-manufacturing","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-japan","tag-pharmaceuticals"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137972","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=137972"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137972\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=137972"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=137972"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=137972"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
