Abstract
Natural sweeteners generally refer to a sweet chemical component directly extracted from nature or obtained through appropriate modifications, mainly secondary metabolites of plants. Compared to the first-generation sweeteners represented by sucrose and the second-generation sweeteners represented by sodium cyclamate, natural sweeteners usually have high sweetness, low-calorie content, good solubility, high stability, and rarely toxic side effects. Historically, researchers mainly focus on the function of natural sweeteners as substitutes for sugars in the food industry. This paper reviews the bioactivities of several typical natural sweeteners, including anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-bacterial, and anti-hyperglycemic activities. In addition, we have summarized the extraction, physicochemical properties, and application of natural sweeteners. The article aimed to comprehensively collate vital information about natural sweeteners and review the potentiality of tapping bioactive compounds from natural products. Hopefully, this review provides insights into the further development of natural sweeteners as therapeutic agents and functional foods.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 912:169521. [PMID: 38141985 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.169521] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 11/27/2023] [Accepted: 12/17/2023] [Indexed: 12/25/2023]
Abstract
Lactic acid is an important industrial precursor; however, high substrate costs are a major challenge in microbial fermentation-based lactic acid production. Coffee waste is a sustainable feedstock alternative for lactic acid production via microbial fermentation. Herein, the feasibility of coffee waste as a feedstock was explored by employing appropriate pretreatment methods and optimizing enzyme combinations. Coffee waste pretreatment with hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid along with a combination of Viscozyme L, Celluclast 1.5 L, and Pectinex Ultra SP-L achieved the 78.9 % sugar conversion rate at a substrate concentration of 4 % (w/v). Lactiplantibacillus plantarum WiKim0126-induced fermentation with a 4 % solid loading yielded a lactic acid concentration of 22.8 g/L (99.6 % of the theoretical maximum yield) and productivity of 0.95 g/L/h within 24 h. These findings highlight the viability of coffee waste as an eco-friendly resource for sustainable lactic acid production.

Abstract
Food waste biorefinery is a sustainable approach to producing green chemicals, however the essential substrate-related factors hindering the efficacy of enzymatic hydrolysis have never been clarified. This study explored the key rate-limiting parameters and mechanisms of carbohydrate-rich food after different cooking and storing methods, i.e., impacts of compositions, structural diversities, and hornification. Shake-flask enzymatic kinetics determined the optimal dosages (0.5 wt% glucoamylase, 3 wt% cellulase) for food waste hydrolysis. First order kinetics and simulation results determined that reaction coefficient (K) of cooked starchy food was ∼ 3.63 h-1 (92 % amylum digestibility) within 2 h, while those for cooked cellulosic vegetables were 0.25-0.5 h-1 after 12 h of hydrolysis. Drying and frying reduced ∼ 71-89 % hydrolysis rates for rice, while hydrothermal pretreatment increased the hydrolysis rate by 82 % on vegetable wastes. This study provided insights into advanced control strategy and reduced the operational costs by optimized enzyme doses for food waste valorization.

Abstract
Sulfite pretreatment is a productive process for lignin dissolution in lignocelluloses and to reduce the hydrophobicity of lignin by sulfonation, thus promoting the hydrolyzability of the substrate. Previously, sulfite pretreatment needs high dosages of chemicals and thus results in the high cost of the pretreatment and the great pressure of environmental pollution. To overcome these problems, it was crucial to research whether alkaline sulfite pretreatment (ALS) and acid sulfite pretreatment (ACS) with low chemical loading could enhance the saccharification of poplar. In this work, the results indicated that with low loading of chemicals in sulfite pretreatment, ALS pretreatment (1.6% Na2SO3 and 0.5% NaOH) at 180 °C removed more lignin, resulted in lower hydrophobicity and higher cellulase adsorption capacity of poplar than ACS pretreatment (1.6% Na2SO3 and 0.5% H2SO4) at 180 °C. A satisfying glucose yield of 84.9% and a xylose yield of 76.0% were obtained from poplar after ALS pretreatment with 1.6% Na2SO3 and 0.5% NaOH at 180 °C for 1 h using 10 FPU cellulase/g dry matter, saving sodium sulfite by 60.0% compared to the loading of sulfite in traditional sulfite pretreatment. The strategy developed in this work reduced chemical loading and cellulase loading in alkali sulfite pretreatment for the saccharification of poplar.

Abstract
Converting woody biomass to bioethanol might be more affordable, environmentally friendly, and efficient for making biofuel commercially feasible, but it would still need a significant optimization process and expand pilot-scale research. A combination of commercial low enzymes loading at 10 FPU/g glucan and compound additives utilizing Tween 80, PEG8000 and sophorolipid applied from lab-scale to pilot-scale have been studied in this work at economically viable dosages for enhancing bioethanol production. In lab-scale saccharification and fermentation, pretreated poplar at a high solid loading of 20% yielded the highest ethanol titers of 30.96 g/L and theoretical ethanol yield of 92.79%. Additionally, pilot-scale operation was used to investigate the bioethanol amplification, a final volume of 33 m3 which yielded the greatest ethanol amount of 599.6 kg from poplar wood while gaining on-site value-added production of hemicellulosic and cellobiose liquor 1122 kg and lignin residues 2292 kg.

Abstract
A new biphasic organic solvent, phenoxyethanol-maleic acid, was carried out to pretreat and fractionate vinegar residue into glucan, xylan and lignin under mild conditions. Additional effects of key factors, temperature and phenoxyethanol concentration, on vinegar residue, were evaluated. Under the biphasic system (0.5% maleic acid, 60% phenoxyethanol), 140 °C cooking vinegar residue for 1 h, 80.91% of cellulose retention in solid residue, 75.44% of hemicellulose removal and 69.28% of lignin removal were obtained. Optimal identified conditions resulted in maximum XOS of 47.3%. Then, the solid residue was enzymatically digested with a glucose yield of 82.67% at 72 h with the addition of 2.5 g/L bovine serum albumin. Finally, the residue was characterized by SEM, FTIR, XRD and BET analysis. This work demonstrated the phenoxyethanol-maleic acid pretreatment yielded XOS, fermentable sugar, and lignin with high processibility.

Abstract
Organic acid hydrolysis for xylooligosaccharides (XOS) production from lignocelluloses provides the benefits of simple operation, rapid reaction and high XOS yield. However, no literature reported the XOS production from wheat bran (WB) by organic acid hydrolysis. In this paper, acetic acid (AA) hydrolysis was employed to produce XOS from WB. After AA hydrolysis (5 %, v/v, 170 °C, 20 min) of 100 g/L WB, the concentrations of X2, X3, X4, X5 and X6 were 2.4, 5.0, 1.9, 1.9 and 1.4 g/L respectively and the total XOS yield was 62.9 %, which was the highest among the previous researches. The arabinose yield reached 76.1 %. Then, AA-hydrolyzed WB was delignified by deep eutectic solvent (DES) pretreatment and the resulting residue had the glucose and xylose yields of 83.8 % and 54.8 %, respectively. This work offers a productive method for the conversion of WB into XOS, arabinose and glucose by AA hydrolysis and DES pretreatment.

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.

How Biochar Derived from Pond Cypress ( Taxodium Ascendens) Evolved with Pyrolysis Temperature and Time and Their End Efficacy Evaluation. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:11205. [PMID: 36141474 PMCID: PMC9517174 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph191811205] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2022] [Revised: 08/28/2022] [Accepted: 09/02/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Biomass type, pyrolysis temperature, and duration can affect biochar properties simultaneously. To further clarify the mechanism of this interaction, the branch and leaf parts of Pond cypress (Taxodium ascendens) were separately pyrolyzed at four peak temperatures (350 °C, 450 °C, 650 °C, and 750 °C) for three different durations (0.5 h, 1 h, and 2 h) in this study. The resulting biochar properties were measured, which included the yield, specific surface area (SSA), pH, EC (electricity conductivity), the bulk and surface elemental composition, and the contents of moisture, ash, fixed carbon, and volatile matter. The results showed that the pyrolysis temperature was more determinant for the modification of all biochar, but the residence time had a significant effect on the yield, pH, and SSA of branch-based biochar (B-biochar) at specific temperatures. However, such a phenomenon only happened on the pH of leaf-based biochar (L-biochar). Results: (1) With the temperature at 350 and 650 °C, the residence time had a significant effect on the yield of B-biochar. (2) The pH of B-biochar and L-biochar varied considerably between durations when the heating temperature hit 650 and 750 °C. (3) The SSA of B-biochar possessed an obvious fluctuation with the time during the pyrolysis from 650 to 750 °C. According to the properties measured above, the principal component and the cluster analysis classified the 24 types of biochar made in this experiment into four groups and revealed that an obvious disparity existed between B-biochar and L-biochar that were pyrolyzed at temperatures ranging from 450 to 750 °C, which suggested that biomass type was the primary factor for biochar-making. All this information can provide valuable references for the optimization of biochar-making in the real world.

Abstract
Sequential biorefinery treatments of acetic acid (HAC) pretreatment, Papir Forsknings Institutet (PFI) milling and enzymatic hydrolysis were demonstrated for coproduction of xylooligosaccharides (XOS) and fermentable monosaccharides. Results indicated that 36.2% XOS (50.8% X2-X3) and 17.0% low DP xylans were achieved using a HAC pretreatment with a combined severity factor of 0.78. The HAC pretreatment resulted in a XOS-rich prehydrolyzate with a low molecular weight of 1.28 kDa. The endo-xylanase hydrolysis was conducted on the pretreatment liquor to elevate XOS yield and the content of higher-value X2-X3. Moreover, fermentable glucose production from the pretreated residue increased by 2.3 folds when introducing an additional step of PFI refining prior to enzymatic digestion. Properties of substrate including cellulose accessibility, crystallite size, crystalline index and water retention value were in close relationships with enzymatic digestibility. The implementation of proposed biorefinery process will give more insights into the efficient construction of a wood-derived sugar platform.

Abstract
Organic acid hydrolysis is a potential method for xylooligosaccharides (XOS) production from lignocelluloses. However, the effect of lignin content on XOS production using organic acid hydrolysis remains unclear. In this work, the effect of delignification on XOS production from poplar by acetic acid (AC) hydrolysis was investigated. Hydrogen peroxide-acetic acid (HPAC) pretreatment catalyzed by 0-200 mM H2SO4 (HPAC0-HPAC200) removed 21.6-86.5% of lignin in poplar. HPAC pretreatment increased the xylan accessibility to AC solution, thus increasing the xylan removal during AC hydrolysis. An appropriate delignification (61.7%) resulted in the highest XOS yield of 37.4% by AC hydrolysis, increased by 29.9% compared to the optimal XOS yield (28.8%) from raw poplar. After alkaline post-incubation, the glucose yield of poplar residue rose from 57.1% to 78.6%. This work developed a delignification process to efficiently improve XOS and monosaccharides production from poplar.

Abstract
Xylo-oligosaccharides have great value in food, feed fields. Previous studies have shown that organic acids catalyze the hydrolysis of xylan-rich sources for the production of xylo-oligosaccharides. In this study, gluconic acid of aldonic acid generated xylo-oligosaccharides via hydrolysis of xylan from corncob. In order to maximize efficiency of xylo-oligosaccharides production, the optimum conditions was ascertained by Box-Behnken design-based response surface methodology. The developed process resulted in a maximum xylo-oligosaccharides yield of 57.73% using 4.6% gluconic acid at 167 °C for 28 min, which was similar to the predicted value and fitted models of xylo-oligosaccharides production. The results showed that the reaction temperature was crucial to xylo-oligosaccharides production, and by-product yields (xylose and furfural) could be effectively controlled by both reaction temperature and time. In addition, 44.87 g/L XOS was achieved by decreasing the solid-liquid ratio. Overall, the described process may be a preferred option for future high concentration xylo-oligosaccharides production.

Abstract
The preparation of xylooligosaccharides (XOS) from lignocelluloses by organic acid hydrolysis has the advantages of high efficiency and simplicity, but reducing the production of by-products, especially xylose, is a prerequisite for commercial preparation of XOS using organic acid. In this work, to reduce the production of by-products, the acetic acid/sodium acetate conjugate system (AC/SA) was used to prepare XOS from poplar. Under the optimal conditions (0.15 M AC/SA, molar ratio of 3.0, 175 °C, 60 min), the maximum XOS yield was 33.6% with a low xylose/XOS ratio of 0.19. Xylanase hydrolysis effectively converted XOS with DP above 6 in the AC/SA hydrolysate to X2-X6 with little xylose produced. The XOS yield increased to 42.1%, with a xylose/XOS ratio was only 0.17. This work shows that AC/SA in combination with xylanase hydrolysis of poplar successfully achieved high XOS yield with low by-products yields without the extraction of xylan from the substrate.

Abstract
Ball milling technology is the classical technology to isolate representative lignin in the cell wall of biomass for further investigation. In this work, different ball milling times were carried out on hardwood (poplar sawdust), softwood (larch sawdust), and gramineous material (bamboo residues) to understand the optimum condition to isolate the representative milled wood lignin (MWL) in these different biomass species. Results showed that prolonging ball milling time from 3 to 7 h obviously increased the isolation yields of MWL in bamboo residues (from 39.2% to 53.9%) and poplar sawdust (from 15.5% to 35.6%), while only a slight increase was found for the MWL yield of larch sawdust (from 23.4% to 25.8%). Importantly, the lignin substructure of ß-O-4 in the MWL samples from different biomasses can be a little degraded with the increasing ball milling time, resulting in the prepared MWL with lower molecular weight and higher content of hydroxyl groups. Based on the isolation yield and structure features, milling time with 3 and 7 h were sufficient to isolate the representative lignin (with yield over 30%) in the cell wall of bamboo residues and poplar sawdust, respectively, while more than 7 h should be carried out to isolate the representative lignin in larch sawdust.

Abstract
Full utilization of lignocellulose is critical for its biorefinery development. In this study, a sustainable biorefinery process based upon poplar sawdust was established using sequential hydrothermal and deep eutectic solvent treatment (HP-DES). Results showed that single hydrothermal pretreatment (HP) could produce 53.2% xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS) (based on raw xylan), while the enzymatic digestibility was low. Conversely, single DES treatment achieved effective enzymatic digestibility but low XOS yields. As compared to HP, both DES treatment and HP-DES showed high selectivity for lignin removal and high glucose yield. Surprisingly, most of HP-DES residues had obviously lower enzymatic digestibilities than those of single DES residues. This was mainly explained by the differences of the surface lignin contents between DES and HP-DES residues. Moreover, nearly complete enzymatic hydrolysis of HP-DES residues was achieved with the addition of bovine serum albumin. This work demonstrated this HP-DES yielded XOS, fermentable sugar, and pure lignin with high processibility.

Abstract
Anaerobic digestion (AD) processes are promising to effectively recover resources from organic wastes or wastewater. As a microbial-driven process, the functional anaerobic species played critical roles in AD. However, the lack of effective understanding of the correlations of varying microbial communities with different operational factors hinders the microbial regulation to improve the AD performance. In this paper, the main anaerobic functional microorganisms involved in different stages of AD processes were first demonstrated. Then, the response of anaerobic microbial community to different operating parameters, exogenous interfering substances and digestion substrates, as well as the digestion efficiency, were discussed. Finally, the research gaps and future directions on the understanding of functional microorganisms in AD were proposed. This review provides insightful knowledge of distribution patterns of functional microbial community in anaerobic digesters, and gives critical guidance to regulate and enrich specific functional microorganisms to accumulate certain AD products.

Abstract
High solid loading saccharification is the premise of preparing high-concentration sugar which is beneficial to bioethanol production, but the limited sugar concentration and high enzyme dosage are two challenges. In this work, the glucan-rich acetic acid-hydrogen peroxide/acetic acid (AC-HPAC)-pretreated poplar (85.8%) were prepared for enzymatic hydrolysis at 10%-40% solid loading and the strategies for reducing cellulase dosage were explored. Results showed that the maximum glucose concentration reached to 250.8 g/L at 40% solid loading, which was the highest concentration in previous literatures. As the solid loading was 20%, the addition of Tween 80 saved 50% of cellulase and the recycling of unhydrolyzed residue (0.2 g/g DM) saved another 25% of cellulase, resulting in 152.2 g/L of glucose concentration with yield of 79.9%. This work showed potential of poplar to produce the high concentration glucose solution with low enzyme loading through the recycling of enzyme bound onto unhydrolyzed residue.

Abstract
In the present study, ozone assisted autohydrolysis (OAAH) was evaluated for enhanced generation of xylooligosaccharide (XOS) from wheat bran. The total XOS yield with optimum ozone dose of 3% (OAAH-3) was found to be 8.9% (w/w biomass) at 110 °C in comparison to 7.96% at 170 °C by autohydrolysis (AH) alone. Although, there was no significant difference in oligomeric composition (DP 2-6), significant decrease in degradation products namely furfural (2.78-fold), HMF (3.15-fold), acrylamide (nil) and acetic acid (1.06-fold), was observed with OAAH-3 as a pretreatment option. There was 1-fold higher xylan to XOS conversion and OAAH-hydrolysate had higher DPPH radical scavenging activity than AH. PCA plots indicated clear enhancement in XOS production and lower generation of inhibitors with decrease in treatment temperature. Results of the study therefore suggest OAAH can be an effective pretreatment option that can further be integrated with downstream processing for concentration and purification of XOS.

Abstract
Phenolic compounds have long been of great importance in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industries. Unfortunately, conventional extraction procedures have a high cost and are time consuming, and the solvents used can represent a safety risk for operators, consumers, and the environment. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are green alternatives for extraction processes, given their low or non-toxicity, biodegradability, and reusability. This review discusses the latest research (in the last two years) employing DESs for phenolic extraction, solvent components, extraction yields, extraction method characteristics, and reviewing the phenolic sources (natural products, by-products, wastes, etc.). This work also analyzes and discusses the most relevant DES-based studies for phenolic extraction from natural sources, their extraction strategies using DESs, their molecular mechanisms, and potential applications.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have received considerable interests as pretreatment solvents for biorefinery. In the present work, five kinds of dicarboxylic acids based DESs were introduced to pretreatments on moso bamboo (MB) with microwave irradiation assistance. Factors influencing the enzymatic conversion of MB cellulose to glucose were determined. With the fast heating, pretreated samples all present significant delignification and hemicelluloses matrix removal, thus improving the enzymatic conversion yield from 15% of MB to ~60%. For the DESs, hydrogen donors with less carbon atoms (oxalic acid) and more hydroxyl groups (tartaric acid) displayed higher efficiency due to separation of aggregated cellulose microfibrils. The microwave assisted DESs (MW-DESs) pretreatments also contributed to cellulose crystal variations including decrystallization and more exposure of hydrophobic surfaces, which are beneficial for followed cellulase adsorption and hydrolysis. The exploration of fast MW-DESs pretreatments may expand the potentials of lignocellulose biomass on effective and applicable biorefinery.

[PMID: 33465645 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2021.124698] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2020] [Revised: 01/05/2021] [Accepted: 01/06/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
This study aims to valorize wheat straw for xylose and glucose recovery using maleic acid in the pretreatment. The process conditions of maleic acid hydrolysis of wheat straw for xylose recovery were optimized by response surface methodology, through which the maximum xylose recovery of 77.12% versus minimum furfural yield of 1.61% were achieved using 70 g/L solid-to-liquid ratio and 0.1 mol/L maleic acid for 40 min at 150 °C. Moreover, 88.58% cellulose conversion was achieved by enzymatic hydrolysis of maleic acid-pretreated wheat straw. Results showed that maleic acid was an effective pretreatment solvent for sugars recovery: 19.88 g xylose and 30.89 g glucose were respectively obtained from 100 g wheat straw due to acidic and enzymatic hydrolysis, with only 0.37 g furfural produced. This study provides a strategy for hydrolyzing wheat straw to produce fermentable sugars with low amount of degradation product.

Abstract
Anaerobic digestion of animal manure show a maximum of ca. 50% conversion of volatile solids due to recalcitrance of lignin and crystalline cellulose under anaerobic conditions. The aim of this study is to evaluate different pretreatments on anaerobic digestion of manure fibers after anaerobic digestion. Physical, chemical, thermal, and thermal combined with alkaline pretreatments using sodium hydroxide were tested on manure fiber fraction separated out after anaerobic digestion of cow manure. The anaerobic digestion after pretreatment along with untreated controls were done in semi-continuous anaerobic bioreactors. All pretreatments showed positive effect and the highest increase in VS conversion (42.4%) and methane yield (ca. 127%) was found for 3% NaOH pretreated sample at 180 °C. Composition analysis showed that cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin in digested manure fibers were optimally reduced by 24.8, 29.1 and 9.5% respectively during pretreatment and 76.5% of cellulose and 84.9% of hemicellulose was converted to methane during AD.

Abstract
In this study, five acid or alkali catalyzed ethylene glycol (EG) organosolv pretreatments were proposed and compared for sugar production from bagasse. The results showed that compared with single EG/H2O pretreatment, the EG/H2O-HCl pretreatment was more efficient for both hemicellulose (~99.3%) and lignin (~67.1%) remove due to the synergistic effect of HCl and EG. The EG/H2O-NaOH pretreatment was also beneficial for lignin remove (~90.9%), but it was weak for hemicellulose degradation (~28.8%). Both EG/H2O-HCl and EG/H2O-NaOH pretreatments have good capacity to reserve the cellulose in pretreated solids. Following enzymatic saccharification, the largest glucose recovery yield from EG/H2O-HCl pretreatment was 94.3%, a slightly higher than this from EG/H2O-NaOH pretreatment (92.5%). However, its xylose recovery yield was only 77.3%, significantly lower than that of EG/H2O-NaOH pretreatment (93.5%). Besides, a certain amount of lignin also can be recovered from above acid or alkali catalyzed organosolv pretreatments through diluting or acidizing the pretreated liquids.

Abstract
Waste produced in various fields and activities in society has been increasing, thereby causing immediate environmental harm and a serious-global problem. Recently, the attitude towards waste has changed along with innovations making waste as a new resource. Agricultural and forestry wastes (AFWs) are globally produced in huge amounts and thought to be an important resource to be used for decreasing the dependence on fossil fuels. The central issue is to take use of AFW for different types of products making it a source of energy and at the same time refining it for the production of valuable chemicals. In this review, we present an overview of the composition and pretreatment of AFWs, thermochemical liquefaction including direct liquefaction and indirect liquefaction (liquid products from syngas by gasification) for producing biofuels and/or chemicals. The following two key points were discussed in-depth: the solvent or medium of thermochemical conversion and circular economy of liquid products. The concept of bio-economy entails economic use of waste streams, leading to the widened assessment of biomass use for energy where sustainability is a key issue coined in the circular economy. The smart use of AFWs requires a combination of available waste streams and local technical solutions to meet sustainability criteria.

Abstract
A major challenge in converting lignocellulose to biofuel is overcoming the resistance of the biomass structure. Herein, sequential dilute acid-alkali/aqueous ammonia treatment was evaluated to enhance enzymatic hydrolysis of poplar biomass by removing hemicellulose first and then removing lignin with acid and base, respectively. The results show that glucose release in sequential dilute acid-alkali treatments (61.4-71.4 mg/g) was 7.3-24.8% higher than sequential dilute acid-aqueous ammonia treatments (57.2-61.8 mg/g) and 283.8-346.3% higher than control (16.0 mg/g), respectively. Dilute acid treatment removed most hemicellulose (84.9%) of the biomass, followed by alkaline treatment with 27.5% removal of lignin. Roughness, surface area, and micropore volume of the biomass were crucial for the enzymatic hydrolysis. Furthermore, the ultrastructure changes observed using crystallinity, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and pyrolysis gas chromatography/mass spectrometry support the effects of sequential dilute acid-alkali treatment. The results provide an efficient approach to facilitate a better enzymatic hydrolysis of the poplar samples.

Abstract
To overcome the recalcitrance of residual lignins in acid-pretreated larch (AL), a combined acid and alkali pretreatment with in-situ lignin modification was developed in this study. The results showed that introducing in-situ lignin modification with 2-naphthol to acid pretreatment (160 and 180 oC) improved the enzymatic digestibility of AL by 12.7-14.4%, through suppressing lignin repolymerization. The obviously higher improvement (57.8-88.3%) was achieved by applying alkali post-treatment (90 oC) with poly (ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether (PEGDE) on AL, mainly due to the function of in-situ lignin modification with PEGDE for reducing enzyme non-productive binding on lignins. More importantly, the synergism of 2-naphthol and PEGDE modification facilitated the enzymatic hydrolysis of AL more significantly. Its beneficial mechanism was explored by investigating the effects of in-situ lignin modification on lignin properties, including extraction yields, functional groups, and enzyme affinity of lignins. Results will give insights into establishing an efficient pretreatment of softwood biomass.

Abstract
In this study, natural seawater without additional chemicals was selected to treat sugarcane bagasse for the production of xylooligosaccharides and glucose. This pretreatment not only more effectively conserves freshwater resources than hydrothermal pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis, but also decreases corrosion of the equipment relative to techniques utilizing acid and alkaline pretreatment. The maximum yield of 67.12% xylooligosaccharides (of initial xylan), including 11.49% xylobiose, 16.23% xylotriose, 23.82% xylotetraose, and 15.58% xylopentaose was obtained under mild condition (175 °C for 30 min). Moreover, greater amounts of xylotetraose were generated during seawater hydrothermal pretreatment under all conditions, likely because NaCl in seawater cut the hydrogen bonds between xylo-oligomers. In addition, 94.69% cellulose digestibility and 78.58% xylan digestibility were achieved from the solid residue with an enzyme dosage of 30 FPU/g cellulose. Results indicated that seawater hydrothermal pretreatment is a more environmentally-friendly and sustainable technique for producing xylooligosaccharides and fermentable sugars than other methods.

Abstract
How to propel an efficient exploitation of waste streams is a pivotal tache for the long-range augment of hydrothermal biomass valorization. A facile approach was proposed to simultaneously produce carbon dots (CDs), fermentable sugar, and cellulose enzymatic lignin from agricultural straw with the aid of ionic liquid (IL, 1-aminoethyl-3-methylimidazolium nitrate, [C2NH2MIm][NO3]) catalyzed hydrothermal treatment. The graphite N-doped CDs with bright-blue fluorescence, which was mainly derived from the incorporation of hemicellulose (e.g. xylooligosaccharides), lignin and [C2NH2MIm][NO3], exhibited an average-diameter of 8.14 nm. The exfoliation of amorphous parts and robust fibers was formed to improve cellulose digestibility from 14.7 to 81.6%. The efficient recovery and checkup of lignin pave a way for its potential depolymerization into arenes. This protocol offers a significant benefit for large-scale hydrothermal biorefinery where reduction of process waste is a prime concern, and leads to high-value products (i.e., CDs and lignin) that also fosters the feasibility of bioethanol.

Abstract
Humic acid (HA), considered the main component of organic matter in the ash of waste wheat straw (WWS), has the potential to improve autohydrolysis through its function as a surfactant. In this work, a pre-washed WWS (PWWS) was subjected to autohydrolysis with addition of HA to explore whether its surfactant properties can provide benefit to biorefinery operations. Acquired results showed that HA acted as delignification agent likely due to its surfactant properties. Delignification was more than doubled at the maximum HA dosage (30 g/L) relative to the control, which allowed for enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency to also increase from 64.9% to 81.8%. The pretreated materials were further subjected to analysis structure characterization. The results showed that HA effectively reduced the surface lignin area of PWWS, lowering non-specific adsorption of lignin to enzymes. The autohydrolysis with HA was an effective technique to improve the subsequent cellulose enzymatic digestion by enhancing the delignification.

Abstract
Some oligosaccharides are regarded as biological constituents with benefits to human health in an indirect way. They enter the intestinal tract to be fermented by the gut microbiota, causing changes in the abundance and composition of the gut microbiota and producing fermentation products such as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). In this review, the structural features and biological activities of eight common natural oligosaccharides were summarized, including human milk oligosaccharides (HMOS), xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS), arabinoxylo-oligosaccharides (AXOS), isomaltooligosaccharides (IMOS), chitin oligosaccharides (NACOS), mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS), galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) and fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS). Furthermore, XOS were selected to explain the anti-tumor mechanism mediated by gut microbiota. The review aims to reveal primary structural features of natural functional oligosaccharides related to the biological activities and also provide an explanation of the anti-tumor activity of functional oligosaccharides mediated by the gut microbiota. Some oligosaccharides are regarded as biological constituents with benefits to human health in an indirect way.![]()

Abstract
The severe pretreatment of poplar makes xylan difficult to utilize efficiently. In this work, poplar was pretreated by hydrogen peroxide-acetic acid (HPAC) with H2SO4 as catalyst to remove lignin, and the solid residues were used to produce xylooligosaccharides (XOS) and monosaccharides by two-step xylanase and cellulase hydrolysis. The results indicated that higher H2SO4 concentrations in the HPAC pretreatment of poplar afforded stronger lignin removal ability. An increased XOS yield of 19.8% was obtained from 200 mM H2SO4-catalyzed poplar by xylanase and the XOS purity was high, with a very low xylose/XOS ratio of 0.14. Higher glucose (75.2%) and xylose (61.4%) yields were obtained from the HPAC-pretreated poplar using 50 mM H2SO4 as catalyst. Finally, 16.9 g XOS and 296.4 g glucose were produced from 1 kg poplar by xylanase and cellulase. This study provides a method for producing functional XOS and monosaccharides from poplar using a simple reduced-pollution strategy.

Abstract
One of the predominant mechanisms by which lignin restricts effective enzymatic deconstruction of lignocellulosic materials is the unproductive adsorption of enzymes. Although this inhibition can be partially mitigated through hydrophilization of lignin during thermochemical pretreatment, these types of treatments could potentially worsen slurry rheology, consequently making it more difficult to process the material at high substrate concentrations. In the work reported here, laccases were used to specifically modify lignin hydrophilicity within steam-pretreated substrate via in situ phenolic compound grafting. While lignin hydrophilization reduced unproductive enzyme adsorption, high-solids hydrolysis efficiency decreased significantly due to mass transfer limitations. It was apparent that low-solids hydrolysis experiments were a poor predictor of substrate digestibility at high-solids conditions and that substrate-water interactions impacted both substrate digestibility and slurry rheology.

Abstract
A novel approach was proposed for the production of xylooligosaccharides by direct pre-hydrolysis using gluconic acid as catalyst. Maximum xylooligosaccharides (degree of polymerization 2-6) yield of 53.2% could be obtained in 60 min through 5% gluconic acid hydrolysis of sugarcane bagasse at 150 °C. Furthermore, the yield of glucose from solids following gluconic acid hydrolysis treatment was 86.2% after fed-batch enzymatic hydrolysis with 10% solids loading. Results indicated that gluconic acid pretreatment combined with enzymatic hydrolysis could be successfully applied to sugarcane bagasse substrate. Subsequently, glucose could be efficiently bio-oxidized to gluconic acid by Gluconobacter oxydans ATCC 621H with 93.1% yield, and sugarcane bagasse derived gluconic acid has been proved to be an effective catalyst for xylooligosaccharides production. In this study, xylooligosaccharides production from sugarcane bagasse by gluconic acid hydrolysis demonstrated a great potential with respect to the production of these probiotics around the world.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obtaining high-value products from lignocellulosic biomass is central for the realization of industrial biorefinery. Acid pretreatment has been reported to yield xylooligosaccharides (XOS) and improve enzymatic hydrolysis. Moreover, xylose, an inevitable byproduct, can be upgraded to xylonic acid (XA). The aim of this study was to valorize sugarcane bagasse (SB) by starting with XA pretreatment for XOS and glucose production within a multi-product biorefinery framework. RESULTS SB was primarily subjected to XA pretreatment to maximize the XOS yield by the response surface method (RSM). A maximum XOS yield of 44.5% was achieved by acid pretreatment using 0.64 M XA for 42 min at 154 °C. Furthermore, XA pretreatment can efficiently improve enzymatic digestibility, and achieved a 90.8% cellulose conversion. In addition, xylose, the inevitable byproduct of the acid-hydrolysis of xylan, can be completely converted to XA via bio-oxidation of Gluconobacter oxydans (G. oxydans). Subsequently, XA and XOS can be simultaneously separated by electrodialysis. CONCLUSIONS XA pretreatment was explored and exhibited a promising ability to depolymerize xylan into XOS. Mass balance analysis showed that the maximum XOS and fermentable sugars yields reached 10.5 g and 30.9 g per 100 g raw SB, respectively. In summary, by concurrently producing XOS and fermentable sugars with high yields, SB was thus valorized as a promising feedstock of lignocellulosic biorefinery for value-added products.
