Publication Date: | 2011 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.indcrop.2010.10.022 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/8169 | Abstract: | Lignocellulosic waste materials are the most promising feedstock for generation of a renewable, carbon-neutral substitute for existing liquid fuels. The development of value-added products from lignin will greatly improve the economics of producing liquid fuels from biomass. This review gives an outline of lignin chemistry, describes the current processes of lignocellulosic biomass fractionation and the lignin products obtained through these processes, then outlines current and potential value-added applications of these products, in particular as components of polymer composites. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Industrial Crops and Products, 33(2), p. 259-276 | Publisher: | Elsevier BV | Place of Publication: | Netherlands | ISSN: | 1872-633X 0926-6690 |
