I and i

Kevin Barraclough
- 08 Dec 2001 - 
TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.

Bright Side of Lignin Depolymerization: Toward New Platform Chemicals

TL;DR: Following the whole value chain from raw lignocellulose through depolymerization to application whenever possible, specific lignin-based compounds emerge that could be in the future considered as potential lignIn-derived platform chemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanocellulose: Extraction and application

TL;DR: In this paper, the background of nanocellulose originated from lignocellulosic biomass and the typical extraction methods and general applications are summarized, in which the nanocellulate extraction methods related to ball milling are mainly introduced.

Artificial symbiosis for acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation from alkali extracted deshelled corn cobs by co-culture of Clostridium beijerinckii and Clostridium cellulovorans

TL;DR: This work illustrated the great potential of artificial symbiosis in biofuel production from lignocellulosic biomass by CBP by co-culturing a celluloytic, anaerobic, butyrate-producing mesophile and a non-celluloytics, solventogenic bacterium.

Isolation and characterization of cellulose and lignin from steam-exploded lignocellulosic biomass

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a steam explosion technology as a pre-treatment process for different times followed by alkaline peroxide bleaching to isolate cellulose from different lignocellulosic biomass sources such as corn cob, banana plant, cotton stalk, and cotton gin waste.
