The cost of lignocellulosic enzymatic hydrolysis was reduced by enhancing enzymatic hydrolysis and recycling cellulase using lignin-grafted quaternary ammonium phosphate (LQAP) with temperature and pH response. LQAP dissolved under the hydrolysis condition and enhanced the hydrolysis. After hydrolysis, LQAP and cellulase co-precipitated and could be recovered by lowering pH and cooling. LQAP showed significant pH-UCST response, enzymatic hydrolysis enhancement, and cellulase recovery.
The cost of lignocellulosic enzymatic hydrolysis was reduced by enhancing enzymatic hydrolysis and recycling cellulase. Lignin-grafted quaternary ammonium phosphate (LQAP) with sensitive temperature and pH response, was obtained by grafting quaternary ammonium phosphate (QAP) onto enzymatic hydrolysis lignin (EHL). LQAP dissolved under the hydrolysis condition (pH 5.0, 50 degrees C) and enhanced the hydrolysis. After hydrolysis, LQAP and cellulase co-precipitated by the hydrophobic binding and electrostatic attraction, when lowering pH to 3.2, and cooling to 25 degrees C. LQAP had significant performances of pH-UCST response, enzymatic hydrolysis enhancement and cellulase recovery at the same time. When 3.0 g/L LQAP-100 was added to the system of corncob residue, SED@48 h increased from 62.6 % to 84.4 %, and 50 % of amount of cellulase was saved. Precipitation of LQAP at low temperature was mainly attributed to the salt formation of positive and negative ions in QAP; LQAP enhanced the hydrolysis for its ability to decrease the ineffective adsorption of cellulase by forming a hydration film on lignin and through the electrostatic repulsion. In this work, a lignin amphoteric surfactant with temperature response, was used to enhance hydrolysis and recover cellulase. This work will provide a new idea for reducing the cost of lignocellulose-based sugar platform technology, and high-value utilization of industrial lignin.
