Wood‐Derived Nanocellulose‐Biocarbon Fresnel‐Zone Plate Lenses for Sub‐THz Frequency Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Wood‐derived nanocellulose and lignin‐based biocarbon were combined to fabricate fully bio‐based Fresnel zone plate (FZP) lenses for sub‐terahertz frequencies. These sustainable FZP lenses exhibit low dielectric loss and high directivity, achieving performance comparable to that of metallic references, and remain functional under environmental stress ...

Chemistry of Kraft Pulping and Pulp Bleaching

JAPAN TAPPI JOURNAL, 2000
Chemistry of kraft pulp production was summarized from considering recent environmental plans. Levels of dioxins and chloroform emission in regulations were shown first, and then chemical feature of lignin, reactions of lignin and carbohydrates during kraft pulping, structure of residual lignin in pulp, reactions of chlorine and chlorinated chemicals ...

Ozone Bleaching of Kraft Pulp

JAPAN TAPPI JOURNAL, 1997
Recently, one of the greatest concerns of the world wide pulp and paper industries has been organo-chloro compounds discharged from bleach plants which use chlorine based bleaching chemicals. Although there are some debates on toxicities of organo-chloro compounds, we can find a distinct tendency in developing kraft pulp bleaching technologies which ...

Detailed modeling of the kraft pulping chemistry: carbohydrate reactions [PDF]

AIChE Journal, 2020
AbstractThe article introduces a detailed model for carbohydrate chemistry in kraft pulping. This article is continuation to the modeling work carried out for hot water extraction and chemical pulp bleaching. The model includes galactoglucomannan, xylan, and cellulose acid–base equilibria, in addition to peeling, stopping, and alkaline hydrolysis ...

Integrated biorefinery for cellulosic ethanol and spherical nanolignin production from coconut waste

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Green coconut waste was subjected to different fractionation methods to obtain integrated lignin nanoparticles and cellulosic ethanol. Pretreatment with gradual addition of dilute sulfuric acid provided a higher structural hemicellulose precursor yield (68.2%).

Mechanistic Insights Into Sustainable Catalytic Pyrolysis of Biomass‐Derived Ferulic Acid: The Role of Alumina Regeneration

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Surface‐bound ferulate phenolate complexes undergo styrene‐like polymerization on alumina, yielding a polymeric carbonaceous layer that progressively transforms into polyaromatic carbon domains with concomitant release of aromatic products, while parallel surface‐assisted decarboxylation produces 4‐vinylguaiacol. ABSTRACT A fundamental understanding of
