Base catalysed depolymerization of lignin: Influence of organosolv lignin nature
(2014-07)
Three different lignins obtained from olive tree pruning by organosolv processes
(acetosolv, formosolv and acetosolv/formosolv) were depolymerized by alkaline hydrolysis in a batch reactor to produce high value added ...
Economic analysis of a biorefinery process for catechol production from lignin
(Elsevier, 2018-10)
Recently, the valorization of the lignin fraction in the biorefinery scheme is getting more and more attention as the use of this component for the production of bio-based chemicals is crucial for the success of the integral ...
Antioxidant activity of phenolic compounds obtained by autohydrolysis of corn residues
(2012-03)
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of autohydrolysis temperature of corn residues in the antioxidant
activity of the phenolic compounds extracted from the liquid phase. The treatments were carried out at
160, 180, ...
Assessment of green approaches for the synthesis of physically crosslinked lignin hydrogels
(Elsevier, 2019-09-28)
Lignin is an excellent candidate to be used as a starting material for hydrogel synthesis due to its highly functional character. The exhaustible character of the fossil resources linked to the increase of plastic residues ...
Depolymerization of different organosolv lignins in supercritical methanol, ethanol and acetone to produce phenolic monomers
(ACS, 2015-12-18)
Olive tree pruning was delignified by organosolv processes (acetosolv, formosolv and acetosolv/formosolv) to extract different lignins. The obtained lignins (acetosolv lignin (AL), formosolv lignin (FL) and acetosolv/formosolv ...
Effect of the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 on lignin depolymerization
(Elsevier, 2013-05)
Lignin is a good candidate for photocatalytic cracking due to the presence of hydroxyl groups. The photocatalytic cracking reaction involves TiO2 as heterogeneous catalyst.
In the present work lignin obtained by two ...
Characterisation of bark of six species from mixed Atlantic forest
(Elsevier, 2019-10)
[EN] Bark is one of the most available by-product derived from the wood-base industry because of the total volume of the tree that comprised. This study aimed at evaluating the chemical composition of barks of six typical ...
Effect of different organosolv treatments on the structure and properties of olive tree pruning lignin
(Elsevier, 2014-05-25)
Different organosolv processes (acetosolv, formosolv and acetosolv/formosolv) were applied to extract lignin from olive tree pruning. Obtained lignins were characterized by several methods to determine their composition, ...
Effect of different hemicelluloses characteristics on film forming properties
(Elsevier, 2013)
Hemicelluloses are known to have good gas barrier properties makes them of interest to film applications.
Corn cob, cotton waste, olive, apple tree pruning, pepper and chilli wastes were used as hemicelluloses
sources ...
