The complexity and recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass seriously hinder its subsequent
conversion to liquid fuels. To achieve high-value utilization of lignocellulosic biomass, the …

The efficient valorization of lignin could dictate the success of the 2nd generation biorefinery.
Lignin, accounting for on average a third of the lignocellulosic biomass, is the most …

Producing monomeric phenols from lignin biopolymer depolymerization in a detachable and
efficient manner comes under the spotlight on the fullest utilization of sustainable …

Sustainable biorefinery depends on the development of efficient processes to convert locally
abundant, energy-rich renewable biomass into fuels, chemicals, and materials …

An important strategy for the efficient generation of diversity in molecular structures is the
utilization of common starting materials in chemodivergent transformations. The most …

Reductive catalytic fractionation (RCF) of lignocellulosic biomass has emerged as a leading
biorefinery strategy. Herein, we present a copper-based catalyst (CuO/C) derived from a …

Currently, valorization of lignocellulosic biomass almost exclusively focuses on the
production of pulp, paper, and bioethanol from its holocellulose constituent, while the …

In this Review, all known chemical methods for the conversion of renewable resources into
benzenoid aromatics are summarized. The raw materials that were taken into consideration …

Solvent liquefaction of lignin is a simultaneous depolymerization and hydrodeoxygenation
process used to generate monomer products for fuel and specialty chemical applications …

The selective reductive catalytic deconstruction (RCD) of lignin into phenolic monomers
provides the possibility for making the full use of lignocellulose. However, the widespread …
