Abstract
Lignocellulose is an abundant renewable bio-macromolecular complex, which can be used to produce biomethane and other high-value products. The lignin, presents in lignocellulose is typically regarded as an inhibitor of anaerobic digestion. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a novel selective separation strategy to achieve efficient biomethane production and all-component utilization of biomass. Hence, a combination of two-step pretreatment and solid-state anaerobic digestion was employed to enhance the production of biomethane and to generate valuable chemicals from poplar waste. Optimal conditions (4 % acetic acid, 170 °C, and 40 min) resulted in 70.85 % xylan removal, yielding 50.28 % xylo-oligosaccharides. The effect of a strong acid 4-CSA-based novel three-constituent DES on delignification was investigated from 80 °C to 100 °C; the cellulose content of DES pretreated poplar increased from 64.11 % to 80.92 %, and the delignification rate increased from 49.0 % to 90.4 %. However, high delignification of the pretreated poplar (DES-100 and DES-110) led to a rapid accumulation of volatile organic acids during the hydrolysis and acidogenesis stages, resulting in methanogenesis inhibition. The highest biomethane yield of 208 L/kg VS was achieved with DES-80 (49.0 % delignification), representing a 148 % improvement compared over untreated poplar. This approach demonstrates the potential for comprehensive utilization of all components of biomass waste.

Abstract
Hemicellulose can be selectively removed by acid pretreatment. In this study, selective removal of hemicellulose was achieved using dilute sulfuric acid assisted by aluminum sulfate pretreatment. The optimal pretreatment conditions were 160 °C, 1.5 wt% aluminum sulfate, 0.7 wt% dilute sulfuric acid, and 40 min. A component analysis showed that the removal rate of hemicellulose and lignin reached 98.05% and 9.01%, respectively, which indicated that hemicellulose was removed with high selectivity by dilute sulfuric acid assisted by aluminum sulfate pretreatment. Structural characterizations (SEM, FTIR, BET, TGA, and XRD) showed that pretreatment changed the roughness, crystallinity, pore size, and functional groups of corn straw, which was beneficial to improve the efficiency of enzymatic hydrolysis. This study provides a new approach for the high-selectivity separation of hemicellulose, thereby offering novel insights for its subsequent high-value utilization.

Abstract
This research aimed to study on nanocellulose production from palm bunch using process design and cost analysis. Choline chloride based deep eutectic solvent pretreatment was selected for high-purity cellulose separation at mild condition, followed by nano-fibrillation using mechanical treatment. Three types of choline chloride-based deep eutectic solvents employing different hydrogen-bond donors (HBDs) namely lactic acid, 1,3-butanediol and oxalic acid were studied. The optimal cellulose extraction condition was choline chloride/lactic acid (ChLa80C) pretreatment of palm empty bunch at 80 °C followed by bleaching yielding 94.96%w/w cellulose content in product. Size reduction using ultrasonication and high-pressure homogenization produced nanocellulose at 67.12%w/w based on cellulose in raw material. Different morphologies of nanocellulose were tunable in the forms of nanocrystals, nano-rods and nanofibers by using dissimilar deep eutectic solvents. This work offered a sustainable and environmentally friendly process as well as provided analysis of DES pretreatment and overview operating cost for nanocellulose production. Application of nanocellulose for the fabrication of highly functional and biodegradable material for nanomedicine, electronic, optical, and micromechanical devices is achievable in the near future.

Abstract
To effectively convert the fermentable sugars present in lignocellulosic biomass into biofuels and additional value-added products, it is crucial to remove lignin from the biomass. With the intention of expeditiously remove lignin from poplar wood and improve cellulose saccharification, an innovative ternary deep eutectic solvent (DES) benzyl triethyl ammonium chloride-ethylene glycol-FeCl3 (T-EG-F) was studied for the pretreatment of poplar hydrolyzed residue (PHR). The results revealed that following T-EG-F DES pretreatment at 130 °C for 4 h, the lignin removal rate reached 91.88 %. The effect of DES on PHR and regenerated lignin was comprehensively investigated using X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Thermogravimetric (TG) and other characterization methods, providing valuable insights into the mechanism of this innovative biomass pretreatment. Moreover, there was a significant improvement in the enzyme digestibility of the DES pretreatment residue. At 48 h, the enzyme load of 30 FPU/g cellulose achieved a remarkable enzyme digestibility of 97.31 %, and this value exhibited a notable increase of 6.56 times compared to the untreated poplar sample. In addition, the T-EG-F could be recycled and reused. This study demonstrates that the potential of T-EG-F DES pretreatment as a green and efficient method for lignin dissociation from lignocellulosic biomass, offering a promising approach for biomass component separation.

Abstract
In this study, the efficacy of two of the best performing green solvents for the fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass, cholinium arginate (ChArg) as biobased ionic liquid (Bio-IL) and ChCl:lactic acid (ChCl:LA, 1:10) as natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES), was investigated and compared in the pretreatment of an agri-food industry waste, apple fibers (90°C for 1 h). For the sake of comparison, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate (BMIM OAc) as one of the best IL able to dissolve cellulose was also used. After the pretreatment, two fractions were obtained in each case. The results gathered through FTIR and TG analyses of the two materials and the subsequent DNS assay performed after enzymatic treatment led to identify ChArg as the best medium to delignify and remove waxes, present on the starting apple fibers, thus producing a material substantially enriched in cellulose (CRM). Conversely, ChCl:LA did not provide satisfactorily results using these mild conditions, while BMIM OAc showed intermediate performance probably on account of the reduced crystallinity of cellulose after the dissolution-regeneration process. To corroborate the obtained data, FTIR and TG analyses were also performed on the residues collected after the enzymatic hydrolysis. At the end of the pretreatment, ChArg was also quantitatively recovered without significant alterations.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are increasingly being recognized as sustainable and promising solvents because of their unique properties: low melting point, low cost, and biocompatibility. Some DESs possess high viscosity, remarkable stability, and minimal toxicity, enhancing their appeal for diverse applications. Notably, they hold promise in biomass pretreatment, a crucial step in biomass conversion, although their potential in algal biomass carbohydrates extraction remains largely unexplored. Understanding the correlation between DESs' properties and their behavior in carbohydrate extraction, alongside cellulose degradation mechanisms, remains a gap. This review provides an overview of the use of DESs in extracting carbohydrates from lignocellulosic and algal biomass, explores the factors that influence the behavior of DESs in carbohydrate extraction, and sheds light on the mechanism of cellulose degradation by DESs. Additionally, the review discusses potential future developments and applications of DESs, particularly extracting carbohydrates from algal biomass.

Abstract
Grasses are potential candidate to replace wood as a raw material for pulping and paper making, and several processes have been developed to produce grass pulp. In this study, wheat straw was used as raw material, and the possibility of sequential treatment with a mechanical method and deep eutectic solvent (DES) to prepare high-quality dissolving pulp was explored. Firstly, the wheat straw was mechanically treated, and then the wheat straw was delignified using a choline chloride-lactic acid deep eutectic solvent. The results showed that the optimal treatment conditions of deep eutectic solvent were 110 °C, 6 h, and a solid-liquid ratio (ratio of pulp to DES) of 1:40. The removal rate of lignin was 82.92%, the glucose content of pulp was increased by 11.42%. The DES recovery rate was further calculated, and the results showed that the DES recovery rate was more than 50% with rotary evaporation. The pulp viscosity after bleaching was 472 mL/g, and the α-cellulose accounted for 81.79%. This treatment has advantages in biomass refining, and the total utilization rate of wheat straw reaches 72%. This study confirmed that combined mechanical and deep eutectic solvent treatment can effectively remove lignin from wheat straw to produce high-quality wheat straw dissolving pulp.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As one of the most abundant bioresource in nature, the value-added utilization of lignocellulosic biomass is limited due to its inherent stubbornness. Pretreatment is a necessary step to break down the recalcitrance of cell walls and achieve an efficient separation of three main components (cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin). RESULTS In this study, hemicelluloses and lignin in Boehmeria nivea stalks were selectively extracted with a recyclable acid hydrotrope, an aqueous solution of P-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TsOH). 79.86% of hemicelluloses and 90.24% of lignin were removed under a mild pretreatment condition, C80T80t20, (acid concentration of 80 wt%, pretreatment temperature and time of 80 °C and 20 min, respectively). After ultrasonic treatment for 10 s, the residual cellulose-rich solid was directly converted into pulp. Subsequently, the latter was utilized to produce paper via mixing with softwood pulp. The prepared handsheets with a pulp addition of 15 wt% displayed higher tear strength (8.31 mN m2/g) and tensile strength (8.03 Nm/g) than that of pure softwood pulp. What's more, the hydrolysates of hemicelluloses and the extracted lignin were transformed to furfural and phenolic monomers with yields of 54.67% and 65.3%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The lignocellulosic biomass, Boehmeria nivea stalks, were valorized to pulp, furfural, and phenolic monomers, successfully. And a potential solution of comprehensive utilization of Boehmeria nivea stalks was provided in this paper.

Abstract
The development of organic acid pretreatments from biological sources is essential to facilitate the progress of green and sustainable chemistry. In this study, the effectiveness of mandelic acid pretreatment (MAP) was analyzed for eucalyptus hemicellulose separation. 83.66% of xylose was separated under optimal conditions (temperature: 150 °C; concentration: 6.0 wt%; time: 80 min). The hemicellulose separation selectivity is higher than acetic acid pretreatment (AAP). The stable and effective separation efficiency (56.55%) is observed even after six reuses of the hydrolysate. Higher thermal stability, larger crystallinity index and optimized surface element distribution in the samples were demonstrated by MAP. Lignin condensation is effectively inhibited through MAP, as determined from the structural of different lignin. In particular, the demethoxylation of lignin by MA was found. These results open up a new way to construct a novel organic acid pretreatment for separating hemicellulose with high efficiency.

Enhanced Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Wheat Straw to Improve Reducing Sugar Yield by Novel Method under Mild Conditions. Processes (Basel) 2023.

Abstract
Wheat straw is a suitable source material for bioethanol production. Removing lignin and hemicellulose in wheat straw to improve enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency is essential because of its complex structure. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have become substitutes for ionic liquids (ILs), with the characteristics of good biocompatibility, simple synthesis procedure and low cost. However, the process of removing lignin and hemicellulose using present DESs requires a high operation temperature or long operation time. Therefore, we studied a novel method under mild conditions for screening a series of novel DESs based on an inorganic base to remove lignin and hemicellulose in wheat straw. In this work, the effect of DES type, the pH of the DESs, the operation temperature and operation time for enhancing enzymatic hydrolysis, and the crystal structure and the chemical structure and surface morphology of wheat straw were investigated. In particular, Na:EG exhibited the most excellent solubility for wheat straw under mild conditions, removing 80.6% lignin and 78.5% hemicellulose, while reserving 87.4% cellulose at 90 °C for 5 h, resulting in 81.6% reducing sugar produced during hydrolysis for 72 h. Furthermore, XRD, FT-IR and SEM analysis verified the lignin and hemicellulose removal. Hence, DESs based on an inorganic base used for removing lignin and hemicellulose will enhance enzymatic hydrolysis, and thus promote the industrial application of wheat straw to produce bioethanol.

Abstract
As a clean and efficient method of lignocellulosic biomass separation, organic acid pretreatment has attracted extensive research. Hemicellulose or lignin is selectively isolated and the cellulose structure is preserved. Effective fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass is achieved. The separation characteristics of hemicellulose or lignin by different organic acids were summarized. The organic acids of hemicellulose were separated into hydrogen ionized, autocatalytic and α-hydroxy acids according to the separation mechanism. The separation of lignin depends on the dissolution mechanism and spatial effect of organic acids. In addition, the challenges and prospects of organic acid pretreatment were analyzed. The separation of hemicellulose and enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose were significantly affected by the polycondensation of lignin, which is effectively inhibited by the addition of green additives such as ketones or alcohols. Lignin separation was improved by developing a deep eutectic solvent treatment based on organic acid pretreatment. This work provides support for efficient cleaning of carbohydrate polymers and lignin to promote global carbon neutrality.

Abstract
Increasing reliance on non-renewable fuels has shifted research attention to environmentally friendly and sustainable energy sources.The inherently recalcitrant nature of lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) makes downstream processing of the bioprocess challenging. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are popular and inexpensive green liquids found effective for LCB valorisation. DESs have negligible vapor-pressure and are non-flammable, recyclable, cost-economic, and thermochemically stable. This review provides a detailed overview on the DESs types, properties and their role in effective delignification and enzymatic digestibility of polysaccharides for cost-effective conversion of LCB into biofuels and bioproducts. The conglomeration of DESs with assistive pretreatment techniques can augment the process of biomass deconstruction. The current challenges in upscaling the DESs-based pretreatment technology up to commercial scale is summarized, with possible solutions and future directions. These insights would fill the knowledge-gaps to towards development of lignocellulosic biorefineries and to address the global energy crisis and environment issues.

Abstract
An aspirational pretreatment method for efficient fractionation and tailored valorization of large industrial biomass can ensure the realizability of sustainable biorefinery strategies. In this study, an ultrafast alkaline deep eutectic solvents (DES) pretreatment strategy was developed to efficiently extract the lignin nanoparticles and retain cellulose residues that could be readily enzymatic saccharified to obtain fermentative glucose for the bioenergy production from industrial xylose residue. Results showed that the DES pretreatment had excellent delignification performance and the regenerated DES lignin nanoparticles exhibited well-preserved structures and excellent antioxidant activity, as well as low molecular weights and relatively uniform size distribution, which could facilitate downstream catalytic degradation for production of chemicals and preparation of lignin-based materials. Under the optimal condition (DES pretreatment: 80 °C, 10 min; saccharification: 10 FPU/g, 5 wt%, 100 mg/g Tween 80), the glucose yield of 90.12% could be achieved, which was dramatically increased compared to raw materials.

Highly efficient conversion of sunflower stalk-hydrolysate to furfural by sunflower stalk residue-derived carbonaceous solid acid in deep eutectic solvent/organic solvent system.

Abstract
Sunflower stalk was utilized as a source of raw material and catalyst for furfural production, and efficient conversion of xylose-rich hydrolysate into furfural was developed in an aqueous deep eutectic solvent/organic solvent medium by carbonaceous solid acid catalyst SO42-/SnO2-SSXR. The structural characteristics of SO42-/SnO2-SSXR was characterized by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Pyridine Adsorption Fourier-transform Infrared (Py-IR) and Raman. Under the optimum catalytic conditions, furfural (110.1 mM) yield reached 82.6% in a ChCl-MAA/toluene medium at 180 °C in 15 min by 3.6 wt% SO42-/SnO2-SSXR. Additionally, quite importantly, SO42-/SnO2-SSXR, ChCl-MAA and toluene had good recyclability for furfural production. The potential catalytic path of xylose dehydration into furfural was proposed by co-catalysis with SO42-/SnO2-SSXR and ChCl-MAA. This study revealed high potential sustainable application of furfural production.

Abstract
To investigate the effect of hemicellulose removal on subsequent choline chloride and lactic acid (ChCl-LA) based deep eutectic solvent (DES) extraction of wheat straw lignin, ChCL-LA of DES and hot water presoaking pretreatments were used for hemicellulose prehydrolysis. Both presoakings led to a significant hemicellulose removal and introduced morphological changes on fiber cell wall surface. DES presoaking also instigated ether bonds cleavage between lignin and hemicellulose and selectively removed lignin in compound middle lamella (CML) and cell corner (CC) leading to cell wall disruption and swelling which facilitated lignin extraction. Hot water presoaking removed more hemicellulose and caused a migration of lignin to fibers surface, but did not improve subsequent lignin extraction. This study demonstrated that a two-stage DES treatment method, presoaking at room temperature followed by extracting at an elevated temperature, is a viable process to produce high yield and purity of lignin.

Abstract
Microwave-assisted guanidine hydrochloride deep eutectic solvents (DESs) was developed for rapid and efficient pretreatment of castor stalk. The DES synthesized with guanidine hydrochloride and lactic acid showed a better delignification (92.02%) and enzymatic saccharification yield (96.3%) than choline chloride and lactic acid DES resulted. In addition, high-purity (up to 98%) lignin was recovered from the pretreatment liquor. The good recyclability of the guanidine hydrochloride-based DES was also proven with up to 90% cellulose hydrolysis with third-time recycled DES without post purification. The proposed microwave-assisted guanidine hydrochloride/lactic acid DES showed its great potentials as a highly effective and recyclable pretreatment solvent for future biorefinery strategies.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvent (DES) is a kind of green solvent for biorefinery, which favors the progress of being more environmentally friendly and effective. A better understanding of structural changes of lignin is necessary to optimize pretreatment conditions and efficient utilization of the resultant lignin. The current study reported the structural features of lignin recovered from alkaline ChCl/imidazole and ChCl/urea DES pretreatment, and the mechanism of lignin modification was revealed. The profiling demonstrated that lignin samples possessed a high purity (>94.4%), low molecular weight ranging from 1544 to 2562 g/mol and an excellent uniformity (PDI < 1.6). Noteworthy, the content of β-O-4' linkages in lignin was over 75% (i.e. 72.2%-77.4% retention); S/G ratio was increased whereas the content of -OCH3 groups were decreased. It was revealed that slight cleavage of β-O-4' linkages, preferential breakdown of G units, and demethylation reaction were occurred during alkaline ChCl-based DES pretreatment. Specifically, cleavage of ester linkages between PB and lignin macromolecule was taking place during ChCl/imidazole pretreatment at a high temperature; whereas oxidation only appeared in ChCl/urea system. Despite the modification, well β-O-4' preserved and less condensed lignin samples were recovered after low-temperature pretreatment. Consequently, high contents of phenol derivatives (26.3-30.6%) were achieved in lignin oil. The present study provides critical information on alkaline ChCl-based DES pretreatment, which will contribute to the valorization of lignin by-products and will be beneficial to the development of biorefineries.

Abstract
Light-management (LM) films that can regulate transmitted light are significant to diverse fields, such as optoelectronics and energy-efficient buildings. However, for conventional LM films made from petroleum-based polymers, the nonbiodegradability and complicated fabrication process remain a challenge. Herein, we prepare sustainable lignocellulose-based films with excellent light-management capability by facile dissolution and regeneration of wood pulp and the corncob residue from xylitol production (CRXP). The obtained films exhibit high transparency (78%), high haze (61%), and especially remarkable UV-blocking performance (99.94% for UVB and 98.04% for UVA). They achieve consistent indoor light distribution and UV radiation shielding by light management for the application of smart buildings. Furthermore, by spray-coating with SiO2 nanoparticles to construct hierarchical networks, the films are endowed with a superhydrophobic surface with a self-cleaning function to mitigate dust accumulation. Our work provides novel insights into the conversion of lignocellulosic waste to desirable and sustainable functional materials.

Abstract
Saccharification of lignocellulosic biomass is a fundamental step in the biorefinery of second generation feedstock. The physicochemical and enzymatic processes for the depolymerization of biomass into simple sugars has been achieved through numerous studies in several disciplines. The present review discusses the development of technologies for enzymatic saccharification in industrial processes. The kinetics of cellulolytic enzymes involved in polysaccharide hydrolysis has been discussed as the starting point for the design of the most promising bioreactor configurations. The main process configurations—proposed so far—for biomass saccharification have been analyzed. Attention was paid to bioreactor configurations, operating modes and possible integrations of this operation within the biorefinery. The focus is on minimizing the effects of product inhibition on enzymes, maximizing yields and concentration of sugars in the hydrolysate, and reducing the impact of enzyme cost on the whole process. The last part of the review is focused on an emerging process based on the catalytic action of laccase applied to lignin depolymerization as an alternative to the consolidated physicochemical pretreatments. The laccases-based oxidative process has been discussed in terms of characteristics that can affect the development of a bioreactor unit where laccases or a laccase-mediator system can be used for biomass delignification.

Abstract
As an attractive renewable carbon resource, lignocellulose could be exploited to produce high-value-added products. Notably, comprehensive utilization of lignocelluloses and lignin first exploitation is still a challenge during bio-refinery process. In this study, an environmentally benign extraction method via hydrothermal-deep eutectic solvents pretreatment was proposed to separate hemicelluloses and high purity of lignin simultaneously from moso bamboo with most of cellulose retaining in the residues. Hemicelluloses were firstly removed by hydrothermal pretreatment, following with lignin extraction by DESs which was prepared from choline chloride and lactic acid, betaine and lactic acid, respectively. Notably, 98.2 wt% of hemicelluloses were degraded and mainly converted into pentose. Meanwhile, 80.1 wt% of delignification was achieved under the optimum condition (CC/LA, 140℃, 6 h), following with up to 99.49% of lignin purity. The mass balance evaluation demonstrated that the combined hydrothermal-deep eutectic solvents pretreatment is a potential method for efficient fractionation of lignocellulose.

Abstract
Biomass is the only renewable organic carbon resource in nature, and the transformation of abundant biomass into various chemicals has received immense spotlight. As a novel generation of designer solvents, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have been widely used in biorefinery due to their excellent properties including low cost, easy preparation, and biodegradability. Although there have been some reports summarizing the performance of DESs for the transformation of biomass into various chemicals, few Reviews illuminate the relationship between the functional structure of DESs and catalytic conversion of biomass. Hence, this Minireview comprehensively summarizes the effects of the types of functional groups in DESs on catalytic conversion of biomass into furanic derivatives, such as carboxylic acid-based hydrogen-bond donors (HBDs), carbohydrate-based HBDs, polyalcohol-based HBDs, amine/amide-based HBDs, spatial structure of HBDs, and various hydrogen-bond acceptors (HBAs). It also further summarizes the effects of adding different additives into the DESs on the synthesis of high value-added chemicals, including water, liquid inorganic acids, Lewis acids, heteropoly acids, and typical solid acids. Moreover, current challenges and prospects for the application of DESs in biomass conversion are provided.

Abstract
A lactic acid/chlorine chloride-based deep eutectic solvent (DES) was used for the extraction of high-purity lignin (up to 94.7 %) in high yield (up to 75 %) from the hydrolysis/fermentation residue corn stover hydrolysate (CSH), which was generated from a pilot-plant-scale biorefinery. A range of extraction conditions were investigated, which involved varying reaction temperature, time, and DES composition. The relationship between lignin yield, purity, and structural characteristics with DES treatment conditions was determined. The extraction of high-purity lignin from hydrolysis/fermentation residues presents a promising approach for enhancing the economic feasibility of a lignocellulose biorefinery. It was also determined that DES extraction can produce lignin with a controlled range of molecular weight and functional group content.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of aqueous solutions of deep eutectic solvent, Cholinium Chloride:Urea ([Ch]Cl:U) at 50 wt% and 20 wt%, using different molar ratios (1:1, 2:1 and 1:2) on the enzymatic hydrolysis of xylan for xylose production and its subsequent bioconversion into xylitol using a recombinant yeast strain. The lowest xylan conversion into xylose (45%) was obtained using 1:2 [Ch]Cl:U molar ratio. On the other hand, the 1:1 [Ch]Cl:U molar ratio, at 20 wt% in water, improved this conversion, achieving the highest xylose yield (81.4%). The xylitol production was then optimized with [Ch]Cl:U (1:1) at 20 wt% by simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process, attaining 23.67 g/L, corresponding to 66.04% of xylitol yield. This study reveals the possibility of using xylan solubilized in DES aqueous solutions directly for xylitol production, thus assembling a one-step process.

Abstract
Since the introduction of deep eutectic solvent (DES) in biomass processing field, the efficiency of DES in lignocellulosic biopolymer model compounds' (cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin) solubilisation and conversion was widely recognized. Nevertheless, DES's potential for biorefinery application can be reflected more accurately through their performance in raw lignocellulosic biomass processing rather than model compound conversion. Therefore, this review examines the studies on raw lignocellulosic biomass fractionation using DES and the subsequent conversion of DES-fractionated products into bio-based products. The review stresses on three key parts: performance of varying types of DESs and pretreatment schemes for biopolymer fractionation, properties and conversion of fractionated saccharides as well as DES-extracted lignin. The prospects and challenges of DES implementation in biomass processing will also be discussed. This review provides a front-to-end view on the DES's performance, starting from pretreatment to DES-fractionated products conversion, which would be helpful in devising a comprehensive biomass utilization process.

Abstract
Xylose residue (XR), after diluted acid treatment of corncob, consists of cellulose and lignin. However, structural changes of XR lignin have not been investigated comprehensively, and this has seriously hindered the efficient utilization of lignin. In this study, corncob milled wood lignin (CC MWL), and xylose residue milled wood lignin (XR MWL) were isolated according to the modified milled wood lignin (MWL) method. The structural features of two lignin fractions were thoroughly investigated via fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), gel permeation chromatography (GPC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and two dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (2D NMR) spectroscopy techniques. XR MWL with higher yield and lower bound carbohydrate contents presented more phenolic OH contents than CC MWL due to partial cleavage of β-O-4. Furthermore, the molecular weights of XR MWL were increased, possibly because of condensation of the lignin during the xylose production. A study on antioxidant activity showed that XR lignin had better radical scavenging ability than that of 2,6-Di-tert-butyl-4-methyl-phenol (BHT) and CC MWL. The results suggested that the lignin in xylose residue, showing great antioxidant properties, has potential applications in food additives.

Abstract
To improve the neutral DES (choline chloride/glycerol) pretreatment performance, three environmentally friendly heteropoly acids (phosphotungstic, phosphomolybdic and silicotungstic acids) were used as catalysts. Pretreatment with silicotungstic acid at 120 °C for 3 h resulted in 97.3% of enzymatic digestibility at an enzyme loading of 15FPU/g substrate, which was approximately eight times more than that of raw samples. More importantly, 80% of glucose yield was obtained within 12 h. Simultaneously, 81.8% of ethanol yield was achieved in the SSSF process. The efficient conversion was ascribed to the significant delignification (89.5%), which resulted in the exposure of more accessible specific surface area. This was attributed to that the proton (H+) from heteropoly acids could significantly contribute to the lignin degradation. Intriguingly, trace acetic acid (0.39 g/L) and HMF (0.21-0.95 g/L) in the pretreatment liquor were produced without any significant deleterious effects. These discoveries provide new insights for efficient biomass conversion under mild conditions.

Abstract
Efficient and feasible pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass waste is an important prerequisite step to promote subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis and enhance the economics of biofuels production. This study focuses on the pretreatment of wheat straw (WS) with triethylbenzyl ammonium chloride/lactic acid (TEBAC/LA)-based deep eutectic solvents to enhance biomass fractionation and lignin extraction. Effects of pretreatment time, temperature, and TEBAC/LA molar ratio on pretreatment were evaluated systematically. Results suggested that 89.06 ± 1.05% of cellulose and 71.00 ± 1.03% of xylan were hydrolyzed with enzyme loadings of 35 FPU cellulase and 82 CBU β-glucosidase (per gram of dry biomass) after pretreatment by TEBAC/LA (1:9) at 373 K for 10 h. A total monosaccharide yield of 0.550 g/g WS (91.27% of the theoretical yield) was achieved with 79.73 ± 0.93% of lignin removal. Furthermore, the 1H-13C two-dimensional heteronuclear single quantum correlation (2D-HSQC) NMR spectroscopy showed that the regenerated lignin (75.69 ± 1.32% purity) was mainly composed of the syringyl units and the guaiacyl units. Overall, the results in this study provide an effective and facile pretreatment method for lignocellulosic biomass waste to enhance enzymatic hydrolysis saccharification.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Poplars are considered suitable dedicated energy crops, with abundant cellulose and hemicellulose, and huge surplus biomass potential in China. Xylan, the major hemicellulosic component, contributes to the structural stability of wood and represents a tremendous quantity of biobased chemicals for fuel production. Monomeric xylose conversion to value-added chemicals such as furfural, xylitol, and xylonic acid could greatly improve the economics of pulp-paper industry and biorefinery. Acetic acid (HAc) is used as a friendly and recyclable selective catalyst amenable to xylan degradation and xylooligosaccharides production from lignocellulosic materials. However, HAc catalyst usually works much feebly at inert woods than agricultural straws. In this study, effects of different iron species in HAc media on poplar xylan degradation were systematically compared, and a preferable Fe3+-assisted HAc hydrolysis process was proposed for comparable xylose-hydrolysate recovery (XHR) and enzymatic saccharification of cellulose. RESULTS In presence of 6.5% HAc with 0.17-0.25 wt% Fe3+, xylose yield ranged between 72.5 and 73.9%. Additionally, pretreatment was effective in poplar delignification, with a lignin yield falling between 38.6 and 42.5%. Under similar conditions, saccharification efficiency varied between 60.3 and 65.9%. Starting with 100 g poplar biomass, a total amount of 12.7-12.8 g of xylose and 18.8-22.8 g of glucose were harvested from liquid streams during the whole process of Fe3+-HAc hydrolysis coupled with enzymatic saccharification. Furthermore, the enhancement mechanism of Fe3+ coupled with HAc was investigated after proof-of-concept experiments. Beechwood xylan and xylose were treated under the same condition as poplar sawdust fractionation, giving understanding of the effect of catalysts on the hydrolysis pathway from wood xylan to xylose and furfural by Fe3+-HAc. CONCLUSIONS The Fe3+-assisted HAc hydrolysis process was demonstrated as an effective approach to the wood xylose and other monosaccharides production. Synergistic effect of Lewis acid site and aqueous acetic acid provided a promising strategy for catalytic valorization of poplar biomass.

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2019; 290:121775.

Abstract
A novel pretreatment using organic acid synergism with deep eutectic solvents (DESs) was developed to the co-production of oligosaccharides, especially for the functional oligosaccharides, and enhancement of corn straws enzymatic saccharification. It was found that lactic acid (Lac) pretreatment combined with choline chloride/Lac system could not only selectively convert the hemicellulose to xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS), which account for 89.7% of total xylose in prehydrolysate (the functional XOS (DP < 5) took up about 35%), but also significantly promote the glucose release (33.2 g/100 g material) and well lignin separation (representing 40.9% in whole process), which better than the single organic pretreatment at higher modified severity index (SI). Structural features of various solids were characterized to better comprehend how hemicellulose and lignin removal influenced enzymatic hydrolysis. This work offered the mild and potential method to co-produce fermentable sugars with the effective separation and valorization of lignin.

Subcellular dissolution of xylan and lignin for enhancing enzymatic hydrolysis of microwave assisted deep eutectic solvent pretreated Pinus bungeana Zucc. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2019; 288:121475.

Abstract
The mechanism for enhancing enzymatic hydrolysis during microwave-assisted deep eutectic solvent (Mw-DES) pretreatment in deconstruction of plant cell wall was proposed by combining wet chemical analysis and microscopic measurements. Mw-DES pretreatment achieved significantly higher enzymatic conversion of 81.90% with lower lignin and comparable xylan removal (42.81% and 74.73%, respectively). While DES pretreated sample with higher lignin and xylan removal (66.59% and 74.93%, respectively) obtained limited sugar yield (45.67%). There were no significant differences with respect to chemical structures of lignin fraction between DES and Mw-DES pretreatment but primary discrepancies of topochemical and morphological changes were observed. Non- or low-substituted xylan was directly removed from secondary walls (SW) exposed more cellulose for enzyme attacking after Mw-DES pretreatment. Meanwhile, high-substituted xylan and lignin were synergistically dissolved from cell corner middle lamella (CCML). These topochemical changes of components resulted in cracked and porous cell wall structure, thus facilitating the accessibility of cellulose.

Abstract
Corncob residue (CCR) is an economic feedstock with enormous potential for the production of bioethanol. In this work, potassium hydroxide (KOH) pretreatment of CCR was investigated under relatively mild conditions, and the effectiveness of KOH pretreatment was evaluated by enzymatic saccharification at high solid loading. Results showed that after KOH pretreatment (16 wt% KOH dosage at 70 °C for 90 min) and the enzymatic hydrolysis at 20% solids loading and 20 FPU g−1-substrate of cellulase loading, the glucose yield could reach up to about 91%, which was over 90% higher compared to the raw CCR without KOH pretreatment. Correspondingly, about 89% of lignin and 79% of extractives were removed after KOH pretreatment. In addition, the spent liquor of KOH pretreatment containing sylvite could be used as lignin-based fertilizer based on the concept of biorefinery. In this case, the entire process for the production of fermentable sugars was clean and sustainable, which is very vital for the conversion of lignocelluloses to bioenergy or chemicals. The effective KOH pretreatment with the production of lignin-based fertilizer could well match the enzymatic hydrolysis at high solid loading.![]()
