Lignocellulosic biomass, ranging from softwood to agriculture and forestry wastes,
represents the most abundant resource for modern biorefinery. In the course of the last …

Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) is one of the most promising strategies for the upgrading of
biomass-derived compounds to chemicals and fuels. However, the conventional HDO …

Selective hydrogenation of aromatic ring represents an essential process for the valorization
of lignin in the chemical industry but achieving this process at low temperature is still a …

Aryl ethers greatly influence lignin depolymerization and the oxygen content in lignin
products. Cleaving aryl ethers normally requires harsh conditions such as high-pressure …

Global temperature has risen> 1° C since the preindustrial era, resulting in well-documented
adverse climate impacts including extreme weather (floods, droughts, storms, and heat …

The cleavage of C− O linkages in aryl ethers in biomass‐derived lignin compounds without
hydrogenation of the aromatic rings is a major challenge for the production of sustainable …

Catalytic hydrocracking on supported metal zeolites promisingly converts waste plastics into
more valuable hydrocarbons. Although the presence of metal sites on solid acids is typically …

Lignin is produced as a byproduct in cellulosic biorefinery as well in pulp and paper
industries and has the potential for the synthesis of a variety of phenolics chemicals …

In this work, an innovative route for upgrading biomass-derived phenolic monomers by
“hydrogen-free” hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) was proposed and evaluated. The HDO …

The development of fundamentally new valorization strategies for lignin plays a vital role in
unlocking the true potential of lignocellulosic biomass as sustainable and economically …
