ABSTRACT The transition to sustainable lactic acid (LA) biomanufacturing necessitates a shift from first‐generation feedstocks toward residual biomass and low‐pH fermentation, eliminating the costly, waste‐intensive salt purification and acidification steps. This study presents a novel, two‐yeast strategy designed to valorize inulin, a fructose polymer

Integrated biorefinery for cellulosic ethanol and spherical nanolignin production from coconut waste
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%).
