Kinetic modeling of rapid enzymatic hydrolysis of crystalline cellulose after pretreatment by NMMO

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2012
AbstractPretreatment of cellulose with an industrial cellulosic solvent, N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide, showed promising results in increasing the rate of subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis. Cotton linter was used as high crystalline cellulose. After the pretreatment, the cellulose was almost completely hydrolyzed in less than 12 h, using low enzyme loading (

The impact of nanotechnology on textile coloration—A mini‐review

open access: yesColoration Technology, Volume 142, Issue 1, Page 26-51, February 2026.
Abstract Coloration is a key feature in the textile industry that adds value to the final apparels. This coloration of textile products is done by conventional methods which involve huge amounts of water pollution and wastages of textile colourants. Several approaches have been taken to eliminate these issues by advanced dyeing methods, however, due to

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

open access: yesBiofuels, 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

open access: yesBusiness 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

open access: yesChemSusChem, 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 ...
