Nonwoody Plant Lignin for Advanced Applications

493 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This book highlights the effectiveness of nonwoody lignin sources for emerging applications, focusing on extraction, conversion, advanced materials and renewable chemicals. Nonwoody biomass offers abundant, variable resources but poses challenges due to low density, high ash content and compositional differences. The book explores lignin valorization beyond fuel, covering its conversion into polymers, biosurfactants, adhesives, fire retardants, supercapacitors, pharmaceuticals, and pollutant absorbers. Key sections discuss functional group modifications, depolymerization into chemicals like vanillin and BTX, and nanolignin production. Aimed at researchers and biomass-based enterprises, this comprehensive guide promotes maximizing lignin’s potential from nonwoody biomass as a renewable, sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, fostering efficient biomass utilization for innovative and eco-friendly materials.
