Lignin bioengineering

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Biotechnology, 2014
Lignin is one of the most abundant aromatic biopolymers and a major component of plant cell walls. It occurs via oxidative coupling of monolignols, which are synthesized from the phenylpropanoid pathway. Lignin is the primary material responsible for biomass recalcitrance, has almost no industrial utility, and cannot be simply removed from growing ...

A new perspective on polyethylene-promoted lignin pyrolysis with mass transfer and radical explanation

open access: yesGreen Energy & Environment, 2022
Co-pyrolysis of lignin and waste plastics, for example polyethylene (PE), has been studied, but related reports are basically on condition optimizations. This study revealed a new perspective on PE-promoted lignin pyrolysis to phenolic monomers with mass
