Abstract

In this project, students in “General Chemistry” will explore the development of a facile, eco-friendly, and simple preparation method of fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) from a mixture of waste cooking oil and orange waste peels. Orange waste peels are one of the most underutilized bio-waste residues on earth, therefore, it would make better sense to utilize a mixture of the two wastes.
