Research Chemist, Retired, Editor-in-Chief, U.S. Department of Agriculture - DateApril 5, 2021Lignins, the aromatic polymers deposited in plant secondary cell walls during lignification, continue to fascinate plant researchers. The traditional definition, that lignins derive from the primary monomers, the three monolignols, no longer suffices to describe the range of polymers found…
Presenter
- DateApril 5, 2021The renaissance in lignin chemistry and biochemistry has been driven by modern biorefining concepts. It has matured from the role lignin plays in the recalcitrance of biomass for biological conversion to biofuels, to lignin valorization…
Presenter
Inst Paper SCI Techlgy - DateApril 5, 2021Lignins are abundant complex phenolic polymers accumulated in secondary cell walls of all vascular plants. Natural lignins are produced from oxidative polymerization of three _p_-hydroxycinnamyl alcohols - i.e. _p_-coumaryl, coniferyl, and sinapyl alcohols…

- DateApril 5, 2021Molten salt hydrates are concentrated aqueous solutions of inorganic salts, in which the molar ratio of water to salt is close to the coordination number of the salt cation…
Presenter
Professor, University of Wisconsin-Madison - DateApril 5, 2021Hydrogenolysis of lignin offers a potential pathway to sustainable aromatic chemicals of lignocellulosic biomass. In recent years, researchers devoted a lot of efforts to optimize the lignin hydrogenolysis and achieved substantial progress…

Professor, Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University - DateApril 6, 2021By 2050, the plastic waste accumulated in nature or landfills is estimated to be around 12 billion tons, assuming that the current production and waste management trends continue…
Presenter
Professor, KTH Royal Institute of Technology - DateApril 6, 2021The dissolution of cellulose in 6-9 wt% NaOH-water is known to be hampered by cellulose high molecular weight and concentration. Incomplete dissolution leads to the presence of non-dissolved fibers or their fragments. These solutions are also gelling with time and temperature increase…
