Lignin is a renewable aromatic resource and the most abundant aromatic biopolymer on
Earth. As a byproduct of paper pulping, more than 50 million tons of waste lignin is …

Lignin is an underexploited side-stream of pulp and paper industry and biorefineries, being
used for energy production at mill site or as low value material for dispersants or binding …

The use of vanillin as a building block for the chemical industry is discussed in this article.
Vanillin is currently one of the only molecular phenolic compounds manufactured on an …

Epoxy thermosets were prepared from mixtures of phenolics modelling the product stream of
the lignin-to-vanillin process. Vanillin is one of the only mono-aromatic compounds …

Kraft lignin waste is valorized by converting it into vanillin via the oxidation process. To
obtain the highest yield of vanillin, feed concentration of lignin, reaction temperature, and …

The sustainability of processes to integrate in biochemical and thermochemical platforms is
a key factor for the success of lignocellulose-based biorefineries. Production and separation …

In the concept of biorefineries, the production of added-value compounds from kraft lignin
depolymerization is still hindered by the number of separation processes needed to purify …

Abstract Vanillin (V), acetovanillone (VO) and vanillic acid (VA) were fractionated after
alkaline depolymerization of lignin. The feed solution had an initial pH of 13.7 and the work …

The antimicrobial effects of natural compounds (caprylic acid, CA; citric acid, CTA; and
vanillin, VNL) on the inactivation of Cronobacter sakazakii and Salmonella enterica serovar …

The sustainable extraction of natural compounds has recently attracted significant attention.
The extraction of high-quality natural vanillin in active form is crucial for its efficient use in …
