Lignin containing cellulose nanofibers (LCNFs): Lignin content-morphology-rheology relationships

Tianzhong Yuan et al.

Summary: The study found that lignin content significantly affects the morphology and rheology of LCNFs. High lignin content leads to reduced fibrillation efficiency, resulting in large LCNFs, while lower lignin content produces a fibril network with high viscosity and strong gel behavior.

Residual lignin in cellulose nanofibrils enhances the interfacial stabilization of Pickering emulsions

Shasha Guo et al.

Summary: In the preparation of oil-in-water Pickering emulsions using lignocellulose nanofibrils (LCNF), it was found that LCNF with higher residual lignin content exhibited better stability and could stabilize emulsions for over 40 days at low concentrations. The study highlights the importance of residual lignin content in LCNF as a key factor affecting the stabilization of Pickering emulsions.

Salt crystallization pressure as a new method to obtain micro and nanocellulose

Sandra A. Nascimento et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the crystallization pressure of sodium and magnesium sulphates to break down plant cell walls and obtain micro and nanofibrilated cellulose. Na2SO4 crystallization was found to be more effective than MgSO4, especially in previously delignified samples. Nanofibrillated cellulose was obtained through Na2SO4 action and shearing fibres treated with aqueous MgSO4 solution, glycerol, and NaOH.

Biorefinery on-demand: Modulating pretreatments to recover lignin, hemicellulose, and extractives as co-products during ethanol production

Eupidio Scopel et al.

Summary: This study designed three scenarios to obtain ethanol as the main product from an elephant grass biorefinery, while maximizing the recovery of extractives, hemicellulose, and lignin. The alkaline treatment at mild conditions was found to be the most efficient method for ethanol production, while PLE combined with alkaline treatment could serve as a clean alternative.
