Advances in second‐generation biofuel production from rice straw and barley straw

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 20, Issue 1, Page 313-331, January/February 2026.
Abstract This review critically examines recent advances in the use of rice straw and barley straw as lignocellulosic feedstocks for second‐generation biofuel production. A comprehensive analysis of their chemical composition, including cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and ash content, reveals how these intrinsic properties affect the efficiency of ...

The Role of Patents in Circular Innovation: The Case of Sustainable and Recyclable Materials in the Textile Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 967-1002, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines whether and how patenting advances circular innovation and therefore contributes to the sociotechnical transition toward a circular economy. Using the multilevel perspective (MLP) as a theoretical framework, we conducted a case study set in the empirical context of man‐made cellulosic fibers. These heavily patented fibers

Depolymerization of Polycotton‐Blended Fabrics: Challenges and Opportunities

ChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2026.
The increasing production of cotton/polyethylene terephthalate (PET)‐blended textiles and the limitations of traditional recycling highlight the need for innovative strategies. This minireview explores pretreatments, chemical and enzymatic hydrolysis to selectively recover glucose, terephthalic acid, and ethylene glycol, enabling their reuse in ...

An Efficient Method for Recycling Polypropylene with the Antioxidant Additive Propyl Gallate

Fibers
In this study, a new approach to stabilizing polypropylene (PP) melts using the bio-based antioxidant propyl gallate (PG) is considered. Since PG is extensively used in the food and cosmetics fields and its low doses do not cause reactions in humans ...

Novel Lab‐Scale System for Lyocell Fiber Manufacturing

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 16, Page 3358-3378, 15 August 2025.
ABSTRACT Lyocell man‐made cellulosic fibers (L‐MMCFs) are typically produced from wood sources, but sustainability efforts are driving interest in agricultural biomass feedstocks. This study presents a lab‐scale system for evaluating feedstock viability and processing conditions using a rotary evaporator, syringe pump, and microreactor vessel.
