Reductive catalytic fractionation (RCF) is a promising biorefinery strategy to effectively extract and valorize lignin from lignocellulosic biomass…

Separating bio-derived chemicals from renewable feed streams such as lignin compounds from Reductive Catalytic Fractionation (RCF) oil is difficult due to the chemical complexity of the feed…

Lignin solvolysis from the plant cell wall is the critical first step in lignin depolymerization processes involving whole biomass feedstocks. However, little is known about the coupled reaction kinetics and transport phenomena that govern effective rates of lignin extraction…

Reductive catalytic fractionation (RCF) of biomass is a promising method to fractionate lignin and polysaccharides…

Reductive catalytic fractionation (RCF) is an effective method to fractionate lignocellulosic biomass, yielding stable lignin-derived products and usable carbohydrates…

Lignin is the second most abundant terrestrial polymer and valorization is crucial to enabling the economic success of advanced lignocellulosic biorefineries.1 Lignin poses unique challenges and opportunities based on its heterogeneity, recalcitrance, and reactivity…
