Ionic Liquids and Organic Solvents for Recovering Lignin from Lignocellulosic Biomass

BioResources, 2014
Lignin contributes to the recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass and affects enzymatic activity during biorefinery operations. Therefore, it must be removed before further processing.

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%).

Thermophilic anaerobic treatment and biogas generation from wastewater produced in an advanced biorefinery process

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Anaerobic digestion can be an alternative method for treating wastewater from second‐generation biorefineries while simultaneously producing biogas. However, the feasibility of the process and key operational parameters by which wastewater produced in lignocellulosic biorefineries affects reactor performance remain poorly understood.
