Enzymatic Oxidation of Ca-Lignosulfonate and Kraft Lignin in Different Lignin-Laccase-Mediator-Systems and MDF Production

Markus Euring et al.

Summary: Laccase-mediator-oxidized lignin could be a viable alternative to conventional chemical binders in fiberboard production. The CcLcc5 laccase from Coprinopsis cinerea showed comparable performance to the commercial enzyme Novozym 51003 in increasing molecular weight of lignins and oxygen uptake rates. However, the cost of industrial-scale laccase application is still a challenge.

Enzymatic synthesis of kraft lignin-acrylate copolymers using an alkaline tolerant laccase

Maryam Arefmanesh et al.

Summary: In this study, an alkaline tolerant laccase was used to graft acrylate functionalities onto softwood kraft lignin, enhancing its reactivity with isocyanate. The enzymatic grafting under alkaline conditions resulted in lignin products with higher hydroxyl value and reactivity towards isocyanate. This research presents an opportunity for the sustainable valorization of softwood kraft lignin.

Laccase as a Tool in Building Advanced Lignin-Based Materials

Melissa B. Agustin et al.

Summary: Lignin is a promising renewable feedstock with potential as a substitute for fossil-based resources. The use of laccase in catalyzing lignin polymerization and depolymerization presents advantages in mild conditions and non-toxic chemicals, but also poses challenges due to its dual nature. Factors affecting laccase-catalyzed lignin polymerization have been summarized, and the conditions for producing novel lignin hybrids have been critically assessed. Industrial applications, challenges, and opportunities for laccase-assisted lignin valorization have been surveyed to understand the full potential of laccase in lignin-based materials for advanced applications.
