Battling with this - and losing badly at the moment!
10 A. Eliminated material,cold and unripe,not good,carried by pipes? (10)
???ee?????
I'm trying to fit in 'reen' (unripe/green without the 'g') but am getting nowhere. Any advice, further clues would be greatly appreciated. I am not asking for the answer.

It's difficult to help with this without giving the word. The definition is eliminated material. You're right with the letters you have - the definitiomn of "pipes" is not the obvious

Whoops - ignore my last posting - I think 2 highlighted letters must come from 1 clue .
