Lignin, as a precious resource given to mankind by nature with abundant functional aromatic
structures, has drawn much attention in the recent decade from academia to industry …

Lignin represents a considerable source of renewable and bio-based carbon. Pul**
processes enable lignin, together with all components of the lignocellulosic biomass, to …

Biomass is any organic matter that is renewable over time. In the context of energy, this is
often used to mean plant-based materials, such as agricultural residues, forestry wastes …

Lignin is a major component of lignocellulosic biomass and as such, it is processed in
enormous amounts in the pulp and paper industry worldwide. In such industry it mainly …

Our severe dependence on fossil resources for the production of fuels and chemicals is
responsible for two major global challenges: declining the fuel supply and increasing the …

In this study, dissolution of pristine alkali lignin into ethylene glycol, followed by addition of
different acidic conditions (HCl, H2SO4, and H3PO4 at different pH) has been considered as …

Biomass is an important feedstock for the renewable production of fuels, chemicals, and
energy. As of 2005, over 3% of the total energy consumption in the United States was …

The structure of lignin suggests that it can be a valuable source of chemicals, particularly
phenolics. However, lignin depolymerization with selective bond cleavage is the major …

The development of a room-temperature lignin degradation strategy consisting of a
chemoselective benzylic oxidation with a recyclable oxidant ([4-AcNH-TEMPO] BF4) and a …

Raney Ni is a class of fine-grained heterogeneous catalysts composed mostly of nickel that
is widely applied in organic synthesis and a large number of industry processes. In the past …
