Resistance of thermo-hygro-mechanically (THM) densified wood to degradation by white rot fungi [PDF]
Colonisation and degradation by the white rot fungi, Trametes versicolor and T. pubescens, were studied in wood of Norway spruce and beech subjected to three different treatments: (1) hygro-thermal treatment (160°C and 180°C), (2) mechanical ...

On the nature of the selectivity of oxygen delignification
Abstract This work has focused on oxygen’s role in the delignification process within the context of pulp production. We have investigated the role of oxygen in a complex set of chemical reactions taking place during this process, including both oxidative and non-oxidative reactions.

Valorisation of lignin – Achievements of the LignoValue project [PDF]
Lignocellulosic biorefinery for production of biofuels, materials and chemicals requires valorization of all fractions including lignin. As a consequence of its poly-aromatic structure, lignin potentially serves as a source for aromatic chemicals.

ON THE RECOVERY OF HEMICELLULOSE BEFORE KRAFT PULPING
To assess the feasibility of implementing hemicellulose recovery stages in kraft mills, Eucalyptus globulus wood samples were subjected to aqueous treatments with hot, compressed water (autohydrolysis processing) to achieve partial dissolution of xylan ...
