Merging materials processing tricks inspired by mussel and mistletoe fiber fabrication, solutions of cationic mussel byssus proteins were mixed with modified anionic nanocrystalline cellulose, producing distinctive core‐shell condensates. Simple processing of condensate suspensions using freeze‐drying produced hierarchically structured porous protein ...

Pulp Production from Cotton Stalks using Kraft Pulping
The study aimed at optimizing pulping variables and selecting suitable delignification conditions for the production of pulp from cotton stalk. The influence of operational variables on the pulp yield and lignin dissolution of cotton stalks was studied. Cotton stalks chips were delignified in a laboratory pulpwood according to the Kraft pulping process.

Valorization of paper sludge for bioethanol and biogas production
Abstract This study evaluated the physicochemical properties and bioenergy potential of three distinct paper sludges: virgin pulp sludge (VP‐PS), corrugated cardboard sludge (CR‐PS), and tissue and printing paper sludge (TPR‐PS). From the experimental runs, VP‐PS exhibited the highest ethanol yield (46.8 ± 3.7 g L−1, 87.4% conversion), which can be ...

Microwave‐assisted polyol synthesis in continuous flow produces metallic Cu nanoparticles, using ethylene glycol as solvent and reducing agent, lignin to stabilize the colloid and prevent oxidation, and metal‐seeds for particle size control. Metallic copper nanoparticles are a promising alternative to gold and silver in printed electronics due to their
