Reactive Organosolv Lignin Extraction from Wheat Straw: Influence of Lewis Acid Catalysts on Structural and Chemical Properties of Lignins
Sandra Constant,Charlie Basset,Claire Dumas,Francesco Di Renzo,Mike Robitzer,Abdellatif Barakat,Françoise Quignard +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Lewis acids have been studied as catalysts in the organosolv treatment of wheat straw and the results showed that the degree of delignification and the yield of Klason lignin increased with the hardness of the Lewis acid.

Mild Organosolv Lignin Extraction with Alcohols: The Importance of Benzylic Alkoxylation
Douwe S. Zijlstra,Ciaran W. Lahive,Coen A. Analbers,Monique Bernardes Figueiredo,Zhiwen Wang,Christopher S. Lancefield,Peter J. Deuss +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the key for maximizing value extraction from lignocellulosic biomass is discussed, which is currently hindered by the application of fractionation methods that significantly alter the lignin structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coupling organosolv fractionation and reductive depolymerization of woody biomass in a two-step catalytic process
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-step catalytic process for woody biomass fractionation and valorization is presented, in which lignin and carbohydrate are converted to useful chemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Catalytic conversion of lignin in woody biomass into phenolic monomers in methanol/water mixtures without external hydrogen
TL;DR: In this article, a modification of the lignin-first approach that does not hinge on the use of external hydrogen is presented, where methanol/water mixtures are used as a suitable solvent that can be partly reformed into hydrogen.
