“…However, the resin backbone is fragile and can degrade at reaction temperatures above 80 °C. Zhang et al synthesized a resin catalyst based on ligosulfonate co-condensed with phenol and formaldehyde [123]. Lignosulfonate is a cheap waste stream from sulfite pulping during paper manufacturing [123,124].…”

The production of chemicals from lignocellulosic biomass provides opportunities to synthesize chemicals with new functionalities and grow a more sustainable chemical industry. However, new challenges emerge as research transitions from petrochemistry to biorenewable chemistry. Compared to petrochemisty, the selective conversion of biomass-derived carbohydrates requires most catalytic reactions to take place at low temperatures (< 300 °C) and in the condensed phase to prevent reactants and products from degrading. The stability of heterogeneous catalysts in liquid water above the normal boiling point represents one of the major challenges to overcome. Herein, we review some of the latest advances in the field with an emphasis on the role of carbon materials and carbon nanohybrids in addressing this challenge.

“…The lignin-based acid catalyst was prepared from the precipitated hardwood °C for 4 h. 20 The sulfonation reaction was carried out by adding the sample into 10 mL concentrated sulfuric acid, 23 and the suspension was stirred at 150 °C for 2 h. The black solid material was filtered and thoroughly washed repeatedly with hot and cold water until no sulfur-containing were detected in the wash water. The final product was dried at 105 °C and was evenly crushed with a mortar.…”

During alkaline pulping significant amounts of lignin, carbohydrates (mostly hemicelluloses), and extractives (tall oil soap and turpentine) are removed from wood feedstock. In this study, the catalytic esterification of fatty acids in tall oil with methanol to produce fatty acid methyl esters under microwave irradiation was performed at 100 °C for 10-60 min. A novel heterogeneous acid catalyst tested for this purpose was synthesized from the hardwood alkali lignin that was precipitated by acidification from the black liquor from soda-AQ pulping. The comparative reaction data were obtained by using other solid catalysts, Amberlyst 15 and ptoluenesulfonic acid. The results showed the highest esterification yields 93, 88, and 80 % with the p-toluenesulfonic acid, lignin-based, and Amberlyst 15 catalysts, respectively, at 100 °C with a reaction time of 60 min and the corresponding yield without catalyst was 20 %. It was also observed that the lignin-based catalyst could be easily recovered and reused without any notable deactivation.

Synthesis of Lignin‐Derived Bisphenols Catalyzed by Lignosulfonic Acid in Water for Polycarbonate Synthesis

et al. 2015

Lignosulfonic acid, a byproduct of the paper industry, was demonstrated to be an efficient and green catalyst in water for the stoichiometric condensation of creosol with formaldehyde to synthesize lignin-derived renewable bisphenols. The distribution and structures of the products were confirmed by 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, and FTIR spectroscopy and X-ray analysis; furthermore, a possible reaction mechanism was proposed. A polycarbonate was prepared from the bisphenol product and characterized as a model application, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed that decomposition occurred in a single stage with the maximum rate of degradation at approximately 420 8C. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis showed that the glass transition temperature and melting peak of the polycarbonate were approximately 122 and 314 8C, respectively. The environmentally friendly characteristics of this study are featured by the integrated utilization of a biorenewable feedstock, a green biomacromolecule catalyst, and a green solvent for the preparation of valuable biochemicals and materials.
