The potential use of agro-waste in food packaging applications is receiving remarkable
attention due to its sustainable approach and biodegradable properties. As typical …

Lignocellulosic biomass, a matrix of biopolymers including cellulose, hemicellulose, and
lignin, has gathered increasing attention in recent years for the production of chemicals …

The conversion of biomass into sugar platform compounds is very important for the
biorefinery industry. Pretreatment is essential to the biomass of the sugar platform, however …

Nanocellulose (NCC) from pretreated wood and bamboo wastes was isolated by high
pressure homogenization (HPH) in homogeneous media. The pretreatments included …

Non-phenol structure in lignin is difficult to be degraded under alkaline conditions, thus
limiting the delignification efficacy in many pretreatment technologies. Intriguingly, the non …

A mild methanolysis pretreatment strategy was developed with a recyclable acid, p-TsOH, as
the catalyst for the fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass toward its main components …

Controlling the structure, particularly the structure template stability, has great potential for
the fabrication of high-capacity and renewable drug carriers. Herein, novel porous CaCO3 …

Cooking with active oxygen and solid alkali (CAOSA), developed by our group, is a
promising alternative to both clean pulping and biomass pretreatment since it is a facile …

Pretreatment process is a critical technological step in the bioconversion of lignocellulose. In
the present work, magnesium oxide (MgO) was applied in corncob pretreatment for …

Biomass-derived levulinic acid (LA) and its esters are currently envisaged as versatile,
renewable platform chemicals. In this study, cellulosic pulp derived from the cooking of …
