Abstract:
Eliminating volatile siloxanes from gas emissions is increasingly important due to their persistent detrimental economic, societal, and environmental impacts. Although physicochemical technologies are currently the only commercially available abatement methods, recently developed biobased technologies are emerging as a more cost-effective and sustainable alternative to promote the removal of volatile siloxanes.
