Significant contribution of fibrils on pulp fiber surface to water retention value

Nordic Pulp & Paper Research Journal, 2020
Abstract The contribution of structural changes of softwood bleached kraft pulp (SBKP) fibers and partly dried SBKP handsheets to their water retention values (WRVs) was studied. Two factors related to mesopores and macropores, which were determined for super critical point (SCP)-dried SBKP sheet samples, should participate in the WRVs ...

Water retention value predicts biomass recalcitrance for pretreated biomass: biomass water interactions vary based on pretreatment chemistry and reflect composition

Cellulose, 2020
Processing of lignocellulosic biomass is complex due to the heterogeneity of the substrate, but also due to lengthy unit operations, which complicates process control including for enzymatic saccharification. Methods for predicting enzymatic saccharification yield based on the properties of the pretreated biomass would be advantageous to process ...

Biomass‐water interactions correlate to recalcitrance and are intensified by pretreatment: An investigation of water constraint and retention in pretreated spruce using low field NMR and water retention value techniques

Biotechnology Progress, 2016
The underlying mechanisms of the recalcitrance of biomass to enzymatic deconstruction are still not fully understood, and this hampers the development of biomass based fuels and chemicals. With water being necessary for most biological processes, it is suggested that interactions between water and biomass may be key to ...

Water retention value predicts biomass recalcitrance for pretreated lignocellulosic materials across feedstocks and pretreatment methods

Cellulose, 2018
Understanding the causes of lignocellulosic biomass recalcitrance is necessary for developing robust biomass conversion processes for fuels and chemicals. A key factor in biomass recalcitrance is the physical and chemical relationship between biomass and water.
