Lignin removal enhancement from prehydrolysis liquor of kraft-based dissolving pulp production by laccase-induced polymerization

Preparation of cellulose nano-crystals through a sequential process of cellulase pretreatment and acid hydrolysis

“…A number of applications were reported in treating lignocelluloses, for example, laccase-induced polymerization and depolymerization of lignin Gutiérrez et al 2012;Qiu and Chen 2012;Wang et al 2014aWang et al , 2015; xylanase treatment of fibers (Menon et al 2010;Shen et al 2011); endoglucanase treatment of bamboo fibers (Zhang et al 2012), dissolving pulp fibers (Miao et al 2014) and wood fibers (Hayashi et al 2005).…”

Preparation and Characterization of Activated Carbon from Hydrochar by Phosphoric Acid Activation and its Adsorption Performance in Prehydrolysis Liquor

“…Bio-fuel production from biomass waste is generating widespread interest due to the rapid consumption of fossil-based fuels and growing concerns of environmental pollution (Yang et al 2013a(Yang et al , 2013bWang et al 2014). Two major thermochemical treatments, hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) and high-temperature pyrolysis, can achieve the conversion from biomass to bio-fuel (Karagoz et al 2005;Zhang et al 2013).…”

The Potential of Pre-Hydrolysis Liquor from the Dissolving Pulp Process as Recovery Source of Xylooligosaccharide - A Mini-Review

“…Structural oxidation and a notable molecular weight increase were attained, resulting in a polymer 69-fold its initial molecular weight depending on the raw lignin, and optimum values of laccase reaction conditions were obtained: pH 7.3, 70 °C, 2 UmL -1 and 2 h (Gouveia et al 2013). Laccase treatment can greatly polymerize low-molecular weight lignin in the PHL of the kraft-based dissolving pulp production process, yielding a polymer approximately 22-fold its initial molecular weight, from 972 to 21,522, and further enhance lignin removal (Wang et al 2014(Wang et al , 2015.…”
