This article investigates the recycling of lignocellulosic waste, with a focus on the application of crystalline nanocellulose. The study shows that surface modification, nanocellulose-protein interactions, and the use of cellulose-based composites have great potential. Recycling agricultural waste can lead to a pollution-free environment and increased income for farmers.
The present imperative interest is in recycling lignocellulosic wastes arising from the global activities of agriculture and forest-based industries. Lignocellulosic waste valorization may help to produce natural biopolymer-based products and their applications in biomedical, biopharmaceutical, and industrial fields. Among these, crystalline nanocellulose (CNC), a cellulose nano-derivative having better enzymatic performance, production yield through immobilization contributes to a green technology and sustainable sources. This is a comprehensive review on the development of cellulose based support matrices, where surface modification of nanocellulose, nanocellulose-protein interactions and applications of cellulose based composites have been illustrated. Hence, this novel step to recycle primary and secondary agricultural solid waste management will develop pollution free environment, double farmer's income, and cheaper biomaterial for enzyme immobilization that will minimize the process cost value.
