The polydispersity of commercially available kraft lignins (KLs) is one of the factors limiting
their applications in polymer-based materials. A prerequisite is thus to develop lignin …

The 1st generation of biofuels stemming from sugar cane, rape or corn is commercially
established today and holds a considerable market share as a drop-in fuel. However, due to …

The separation of lignin from the black liquor generated during alkaline pulping is reviewed
in this article with an emphasis on chemistry. Based on published accounts, the precipitation …

The procedure of electrocoagulation is an effective, fast and economic technique for
treatment of black liquor resulting from paper industry. The effect of electrolysis time, current …

The bioeconomy, and in particular, biorefining and bioenergy production, have received
considerable attention in recent years as a shift to renewable bioresources to produce …

Fractionation of lignocellulose is a fundamental step in the valorization of cellulose,
hemicelluloses, and lignin to produce various sustainable fuels, materials and chemicals …

Utilization of renewable resources is becoming increasingly important, and only sustainable
processes that convert such resources into useful products can achieve environmentally …

Lignin, which is the second most abundant biomass component and has carbon-rich
phenolic content, is a promising renewable raw material for multiple applications, such as …
