Lignin, the largest renewable aromatic resource, is a promising alternative feedstock for the
sustainable production of various chemicals, fuels, and materials. Despite this potential …

The application of microbes to valorize aromatic compounds derived from the abundant
plant biopolymer lignin is a rapidly develo** area of research that may ultimately enable …

Bioconversion of a heterogeneous mixture of lignin-related aromatic compounds (LRCs) to a
single product via microbial biocatalysts is a promising approach to valorize lignin. Here …

Lignin displays a highly challenging renewable. To date, massive amounts of lignin,
generated in lignocellulosic processing facilities, are for the most part merely burned due to …

Efforts to produce aromatic monomers through catalytic lignin depolymerization have
historically focused on aryl–ether bond cleavage. A large fraction of aromatic monomers in …

Selective lignin depolymerization is a key step in lignin valorization to value-added products,
and there are multiple catalytic methods to cleave labile aryl–ether bonds in lignin. However …

Bioconversion of lignin into valuable chemicals could promote both lignin valorization and
biomass-based economy. However, the heterogeneity of lignin and the lack of an effective …

Lignin is the second most abundant polymer in nature, which is also widely generated
during biomass fractionation in lignocellulose biorefineries. At present, most of technical …

Lignin and wheat bran represent renewable feedstocks for generation of useful and value-
added compounds such as vanillin (a popular flavoring agent) and cis, cis-muconic acid …

Biological valorization of lignin, the second most abundant biopolymer on Earth, is an
indispensable sector to build a circular economy and net-zero future. However, lignin is …
