Abstract
First reported in 2004, and subsequently advanced by Chemat’s and other research teams in the following two decades, the use of d-limonene as natural product extraction solvent offers multiple benefits that go beyond its environmentally benign nature. Following a review of the main research achievements concerning the use of this biosolvent in the extraction of widely different natural products, we offer a comprehensive perspective including usually neglected economic and safety aspects.
