Production of Flocculants, Adsorbents, and Dispersants from Lignin

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Currently, lignin is mainly produced in pulping processes, but it is considered as an under-utilized chemical since it is being mainly used as a fuel source. Lignin contains many hydroxyl groups that can participate in chemical reactions to produce value-
