structures, has drawn much attention in the recent decade from academia to industry …

In the search of alternative resources to make commodity chemicals and transportation fuels
for a low carbon future, lignocellulosic biomass with over 180-billion-ton annual production …

The exploration of effective approaches for the valorization of lignin to valuable products
attracts broad interests of a growing scientific community. By fully unlocking the potential of …

The efficient valorization of lignin could dictate the success of the 2nd generation biorefinery.
Lignin, accounting for on average a third of the lignocellulosic biomass, is the most …

In pursuit of more sustainable and competitive biorefineries, the effective valorisation of
lignin is key. An alluring opportunity is the exploitation of lignin as a resource for chemicals …

Lignin, a major component of lignocellulose, is the largest source of aromatic building blocks
on the planet and harbors great potential to serve as starting material for the production of …

Lignin represents a considerable source of renewable and bio-based carbon. Pulping
processes enable lignin, together with all components of the lignocellulosic biomass, to …

Lignin is an abundant biopolymer with a high carbon content and high aromaticity. Despite
its potential as a raw material for the fuel and chemical industries, lignin remains the most …

Here, we show that lignin-first biorefining of poplar can enable the production of dissolving
cellulose pulp that can produce regenerated cellulose, which could substitute cotton. These …

Current processes for the fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass focus on the production of
high‐quality cellulosic fibers for paper, board, and viscose production. The other fractions …
