Extraction and isolation of lignin from ash tree (Fraxinus exselsior) with protic ionic liquids (PILs)

Isa Hasanov et al.

Summary: This study investigated the extraction of lignin from ash tree hardwood biomass using three different PILs, with [Py][For] at 75 degrees C showing the highest percentage of lignin dissolution. This suggests that PILs could serve as effective solvents for Kraft lignin dissolution and separation from raw, milled biomass.

Chemical and Morphological Structure of Transgenic Switchgrass Organosolv Lignin Extracted by Ethanol, Tetrahydrofuran, and ?-Valerolactone Pretreatments

Luna Liang et al.

Summary: The study revealed significant structural changes in solubilized lignin isolated from wild-type and transgenic switchgrass after different organosolv pretreatments, with ethanol pretreatment causing the most pronounced reduction in lignin molecular mass. THF-pretreated transgenic lignins showed higher molecular mass, more fi-O-4 linkages, and aliphatic hydroxyl content compared to ethanol and GVL pretreated lignin.

Effect of Protic Ionic Liquids in Sugar Cane Bagasse Pretreatment for Lignin Valorization and Ethanol Production

Thaynara C. Pin et al.

Summary: Ionic liquids, specifically PILs, have shown potential in selectively solubilizing lignin and enabling high yield and productivity in fermentation processes. The design of PILs influences lignin characteristics, while pretreatment temperature and time do not. The recovered lignins are sulfur-free and have functional groups that make them suitable for conversion into various value-added products in a biorefinery context.

Assessing the effect of protic ionic liquid pretreatment of Pinus radiata from different perspectives including solvent-water ratio

Nazife Isik Haykir et al.

Summary: This study investigated the enzymatic transformation of pine pretreated with TEAHSO(4) at different water-PIL ratios, biomass loadings and biomass particle sizes. Adjusting the water content of the PIL solution enhanced delignification performance and increased cellulose content in the biomass. Utilizing a 1:4 water-PIL ratio introduced more favorable conditions for pretreatment, leading to changes in lignin particle size distribution.

In-depth process parameter investigation into a protic ionic liquid pretreatment for 2G ethanol production

P. Y. S. Nakasu et al.

Summary: Protic ionic liquids (PILs) are efficient pretreatment agents for lignocellulosic biomass deconstruction to produce ethanol. Optimal conditions for pretreatment include 2 hours, 150 degrees Celsius, 15% solids loading, and 20% water content. The addition of hemicellulases during saccharification can improve hemicellulose yield, while the use of ethanol and other antisolvents does not increase sugar yields.

On Laccase-Catalyzed Polymerization of Biorefinery Lignin Fractions and Alignment of Lignin Nanoparticles on the Nanocellulose Surface via One-Pot Water-Phase Synthesis

Luyao Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the structure-property-application relationship of lignin fractions derived from birch and spruce alkaline lignin after sequential solvent fractionation. It was found that lignin fractions with low molar mass exhibited higher polymerization degree due to more reactive phenolic-OH groups and better accessibility of lignin-laccase, compared to high molar mass fractions. Additionally, in situ polymerization of birch lignin fractions using microfibrillated cellulose as a template resulted in a dispersion of nanocellulose with lignin nanoparticles coated on its fiber network.
