Hydrothermal process is an emerging technology that contributes to sustainable production
of biomass-derived chemicals, fuels, and materials. This technology uses hot compressed …

The biorefining process of lignocellulosic biomass has recently emerged as one of the most
profitable biofuel production options. However, pretreatment is required to improve the …

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) based pretreatment is an emerging approach to overcome
recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass and improve its processability. Among different …

Improper disposal of lignocellulosic wastes may produce a large quantity of greenhouse
gases and pollute the environment. Through anaerobic digestion processes, lignocellulosic …

The introduction of nanotechnology into conventional biorefinery will facilitate complete
valorization of lignocellulosic biomass. In this work, a microwave-assisted deep eutectic …

As the second most abundant biopolymer on earth after cellulose, lignin is considered to be
an alternative source of various polymers and biomaterials since it can be cleaved into a …

Xylo-oligosaccharide (XOS) is a class of functional oligosaccharides that have been
demonstrated with prebiotic activity over several decades. XOS has several advantages …

In this work, a rapid one-pot hydrated deep eutectic solvent (DES) pretreatment was
proposed to facilitate the conversion of carbohydrates from lignocellulosic biomass to …

Enzymatic hydrolysis is the key step limiting the efficiency of the biorefinery of lignocellulosic
biomass. Enzymes involved in enzymatic hydrolysis and their interactions with biomass …

Acid pretreatment of biomass decomposed hemicelluloses but could not effectively remove
lignin, which hindered biomass saccharification and carbohydrates utilization. In this work, 2 …
