New AI model predicts solvent behavior for biomass refining

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed TiNN, a thermodynamics-informed neural network designed to predict the solvation behavior of deep eutectic solvents (DESs). This model hierarchically represents hydrogen-bond associations and solute interactions, achieving a high test-set R^2 of 0.917. TiNN significantly improves solubility prediction accuracy compared to existing methods like COSMO-RS, reducing geometric mean solubility error from over 23-fold to approximately 1.5-fold. The model also demonstrates the ability to distinguish DES formulations effective for removing lignin and hemicellulose from corn stover, even without specific training on fractionation data. AI

IMPACT This model could accelerate the development of more efficient and sustainable chemical processes by improving solvent screening.

    Thermodynamics-Informed Learning Captures Hierarchical Hydrogen-Bond Networks in Deep Eutectic Solvents

    arXiv:2611.06590v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) offer a tunable platform for lignocellulose refining, but their solvation behavior depends on multicomponent hydrogen-bond networks rather than individual constituent properties. We develop TiNN, a ther…
