Chemical and electrochemical modification of kraft lignin to value-added products
(2012-11-10)Lignin is one of the most abundant biopolymers on earth, constituting approximately 30% of the dry weight of softwoods and 20% of hardwoods. It is a renewable, non-toxic, commercially available and low cost natural resource ... -
Lignin modification to produce hydrophobic products
(2017)Kraft lignin is not widely utilized for industrial applications. In this MSc work, kraft lignin was modified by grafting hydrophobic groups to produce hydrophobic materials. The main objective was to study the grafting of ... -
Lignin-based flocculant and dispersant for wastewater treatment
(2018)The wastewaters produced from different industries contain fine and charged suspended particles and other impurities. Today, the removal of these colloidal particles from the wastewater has become a serious challenge for ... -
Lignin-based hydrogels
(2017)Currently, limited information is available on lignin-based hydrogels, but its potential in commercial applications presents a promising avenue for the utilization of lignocellulosic materials. Recent studies have employed ... -
Sulfonation of kraft lignon to water soluble value added products
(2014-12-11)Kraft lignin is water insoluble and has limited end-use applications. The main objective of this MSc studies was to rend kraft lignin water soluble, and various value-added products including dispersants and flocculants. ... -
Techno-economic analysis and supply chain design for a forest biorefinery to produce value-added bio-based products from lignin
(2019)By far, several commercial projects for production of lignin-based chemicals started operations around the world. For instance, the LignoBoost process was installed by Domtar in 2013 in the United States, and in 2015 by ... -
Valorization of Kraft lignin via alkaline and acid- mediated aerobic oxidation processes
(2023)Lignin is a complex heterogeneous aromatic compound derived from renewable plant biomass. Due to its aromatic backbone, it has grown interested in producing biochemicals and other polymeric applications. Depending on the ...
