Revisiting acidulation for tall oil and lignin manufacturing

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Tall oil is a byproduct of the kraft pulping process when softwood is used as raw material. As the production of softwood‐based pulp is in high demand, the optimization of the tall oil production process needs to be revisited to ensure the highest quality and quantity of tall oil manufacturing. In this work, the process for tall oil production

A novel fungal GH30 xylanase with xylobiohydrolase auxiliary activity

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2019
Background The main representatives of hemicellulose are xylans, usually decorated β-1,4-linked d-xylose polymers, which are hydrolyzed by xylanases. The efficient utilization and complete hydrolysis of xylans necessitate the understanding of the mode of

Integrated and closed‐loop biorefinery strategies for efficient waste valorization and biofuel production

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

Softening-up mannan-rich cell walls [PDF]

, 2012
The softening and degradation of the cell wall (CW), often mannan enriched, is involved in several processes during development of higher plants, such as meristematic growth, fruit ripening, programmed cell death, and endosperm rupture upon germination ...

Xylose Acetals ‐ a New Class of Sustainable Solvents and Their Application in Enzymatic Polycondensation

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
Novel organic solvents with an unmodified carbohydrate core were synthesised both from D‐xylose and directly from biomass and were successfully used as reaction media for lipase biocatalysts to synthesise aliphatic and aromatic polyesters. Abstract The use of organic solvents in academic research and industry applications is facing increasing ...

Biochemical characterization of the xylan hydrolysis profile of the extracellular endo-xylanase from Geobacillus thermodenitrificans T12

BMC Biotechnology, 2017
Background Endo-xylanases are essential in degrading hemicellulose of various lignocellulosic substrates. Hemicellulose degradation by Geobacillus spp. is facilitated by the hemicellulose utilization (HUS) locus that is present in most strains belonging ...

Purification and Characterization of Endoxylanases Cloned from Fibrobacter Succinogenes S85 and Expressed in Escherichia Coli HB101 [PDF]

, 1996
The xylanase enzyme from Escherichia coli HB 101 containing the xylanolytic recombinant plasmid pBX6 was purified to homogeneity using ultrafiltration, DEAESepharose, CM-Sepharose and Sephadex 0-200 chromatography.

A glycosyl transferase family 43 protein involved in xylan biosynthesis is associated with straw digestibility in Brachypodium distachyon [PDF]

, 2018
The recalcitrance of secondary plant cell walls to digestion constrains biomass use for the production of sustainable bioproducts and for animal feed. We screened a population of Brachypodium recombinant inbred lines (RILs) for cell wall digestibility ...

Boosting POM‐Ionosolv Biorefining of Lignocellulosic Biomass by Using Redox‐Balanced Polyoxometalate Catalysts in Methanolic Ionic Liquid Reaction Media

ChemSusChem, EarlyView.
This study presents an advanced iteration of the polyoxometalate (POM)‐Ionosolv concept to generate biobased methyl formate in high yield and a bleached cellulose pulp from lignocellulosic biomass in a single‐step operation by using redox‐balanced POM catalysts and molecular oxygen in alcoholic ionic liquid mixtures.
