Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 276:133751. [PMID: 39009269 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133751] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2024] [Revised: 07/01/2024] [Accepted: 07/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024]
Abstract
Deep eutectic solvent (DES) is an ideal solvent for extracting lignin in biomass pretreatment process. However, excessive breakage of the β-O-4 bonds of lignin remained a challenge for DES-pretreated biomass. In this study, a novel pretreatment system of choline chloride-citrate acid DES combined with ethanol for the pretreatment of bamboo was developed. The chemical characteristics of extracted lignin of bamboo before and after pretreatment were analyzed by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). The results showed that the lignin extracted by ethanol/DES had moderate and uniform molecular weight (Mn: 3081-4314 Da, Mw: 3130-5399 Da), and was structurally intact (maintaining 40.29 % β-O-4 content), which was about five times higher than DES-extracted lignin, and contained a high number of S units (up to 80 %). Ethanol/DES system resulted in high removal of lignin up to 78.81 % and the highest enzymatic digestibility of glucose (72.68 %) and xylan (92.95 %), respectively. In addition, recovered DES provided similar glucose digestibility yields and delignification performance. The Ethanol/DES pretreatment developed herein provided a viable method for maintaining the structural integrity of lignin and preparing lignin with high β-O-4 content whilst with a relatively high components recovery.

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2024; 399:130635. [PMID: 38552860 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2024.130635] [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: 02/07/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 03/23/2024] [Indexed: 04/01/2024]
Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) offer a potential opportunity in biomass utilization industries. This work emphasized the impact of hydrogen bond donors (HBD) and acceptors (HBA) on deconstruction and valorization of rice straw. Acidity, alkyl chain length, hydrogen bonding ability and functional groups of HBD and HBA appeared to be important factors affecting the fractionated pulps and lignins, which further influenced ethanol fermentation. Among the candidate DESs, lactic acid/guanidine hydrochloride (LGH) was proved to be the most suitable one due to the excellent delignification and xylan removal. For the downstream fermentation process, 0.47 g g-1 of bioethanol with 0.55 g/L h-1 of productivity can be obtained from the LGH pulp's hydrolysate. Mass balance showed 302.8 g bioethanol and 119.0 g technical lignin can be co-generated from 1 kg dried rice straw. This "green" valorization strategy offers a promising scheme in biorefinery of lignocelluloses.

Abstract
Lignin depolymerization, which enables the breakdown of a complex and heterogeneous aromatic polymer into relatively uniform derivatives, serves as a critical process in valorization of lignin. Enzymatic lignin depolymerization has become a promising biological strategy to overcome the heterogeneity of lignin, due to its mild reaction conditions and high specificity. However, the low solubility of lignin compounds in aqueous environments prevents efficient lignin depolymerization by lignin-degrading enzymes. The employment of biocompatible ionic liquids (ILs) and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) in lignin fractionation has created a promising pathway to enzymatically depolymerize lignin within these green solvents to increase lignin solubility. In this review, recent research progress on enzymatic lignin depolymerization, particularly in a consolidated process involving ILs/DESs is summarized. In addition, the interactions between lignin-degrading enzymes and solvent systems are explored, and potential protein engineering methodology to improve the performance of lignin-degrading enzymes is discussed. Consolidation of enzymatic lignin depolymerization and biocompatible ILs/DESs paves a sustainable, efficient, and synergistic way to convert lignin into value-added products.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass mainly consists of hemicellulose, lignin, and cellulose, which differently affect the enzymatic digestibility of cellulose. As for the typical representative for inert woody biomass, three components of cellulose were proposed conceptually for poplar sawdust, i.e., active cellulose, inert cellulose, and resistant cellulose. Dilute sulfuric acid pretreatment, hydrogen peroxide-sulfuric acid delignification, and sulfuric acid-assisted glycerol swelling were, respectively, proven to break the three obstacle mechanisms that affect the cellulase of poplar. The removal of key obstacles improved the cellulase digestibility of poplar enzyme-hydrolyzed residues by 188.7 %, and glucose yield increased from 34.6 % to 99.9 %. Therefore, a total of 39.5 g glucose was obtained from 100 g poplar sawdust by integrating the above three technologies. This work presented insight into and removed the key obstacles to enzymatic digestibility of poplar cellulose and developed an integrated technology to effectively convert full cellulose fraction to glucose from woody biomass.

Abstract
Current DES pretreatment is often performed under relatively severe conditions with high temperature, long time, and high DES usage. This work studied a short-time diol DES (deep eutectic solvent) pretreatment under mild conditions to fractionate the bamboo, facilitate enzymatic hydrolysis, and obtain high-quality lignin. At an optimized condition of 130 °C for only 10 min, lignin and xylan removal reached 61.34 % and 84.15 %, with residual glucan showing a ~90 % enzymatic hydrolysis yield. Equally important, the dissolved lignin could be readily recovered with 97.51 % yield, exhibiting 96.65 % β-O-4 preservation. The fractionation and lignin protection mechanisms were unveiled by XRD, FTIR, cellulose-DP, 2D HSQC NMR, 31 P NMR and GPC analysis. This study highlighted that short-time fractionation of bamboo can be achieved by a diol-based DES which is an ideal strategy to upgrade the lignocellulose biomass for high enzymatic hydrolysis yields and high-quality lignin stream.

Abstract
The greener chemical and enzymatic pretreatments for lignocellulosic biomasses are portraying a crucial role owing to their recalcitrant nature. Traditional pretreatments lead to partial degradation of lignin and hemicellulose moieties from the pretreated biomass. But it still restricts the enzyme accessibility for the digestibility towards the celluloses and the interaction of lignin-enzymes, nonproductively. Moreover, incursion of certain special chemical treatments and other lignin sulfonation techniques to the enzymatic pretreatment (hybrid enzymatic pretreatment) enhances the lignin structural modification, solubilization of the hemicelluloses and both saccharification and fermentation processes (SAF). This article concentrates on recent developments in various chemical and hybrid enzymatic pretreatments on biomass materials with their mode of activities. Furthermore, the issues on strategies of the existing pretreatments towards their industrial applications are highlighted, which could lead to innovative ideas to overcome the challenges and give guideline for the researchers towards the lignocellulosic biorefineries.

Abstract
The water extraction and ethanol precipitation method is an extraction method based on the solubility characteristics of polysaccharides that offers wide applicability in the extraction and separation of plant polysaccharides. However, this method leads to large amounts of proteins, nucleic acids, pigments, and other impurities in the polysaccharides products, which makes downstream purification complicated and time-consuming. In this study, a green, high-density natural deep eutectic solvents was used for the high-purity extraction and separation of polysaccharides from Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch) Bge. var. Mongholicus (Bge.) Hsiao roots under ultrasound-assisted conditions. In this study, 16 different natural deep eutectic solvents were designed to screen the best solvent for extracting Astragalus polysaccharides (APSs). Based on the yield and recovery of APSs, a natural deep eutectic solvents composed of choline chloride and oxalic acid with a molar ratio of 1:2 was selected. The related factors affecting polysaccharides extraction and solvent precipitation were investigated. To improve the operating methodology, single-factor trials, a Plackett-Burman design, and a Box-Behnken design were used. The optimal extraction process conditions were obtained as follows: water content of 55%, liquid-solid ratio of 24 mL/g, ultrasonic irradiation time of 54 min, ultrasonic irradiation temperature of 50 °C, ultrasonic irradiation power of 480 W, ethanol precipitation time of 24 h, and ethanol concentration of 75%. Under optimal extraction conditions, the recovery of APSs was 61.4 ± 0.6 mg/g. Considering the special matrix characteristics of A. membranaceus var. Mongholicus roots, physical-technology-based ultrasonic waves promote penetration, and the mass transfer function also solves the bottleneck of high-viscosity deep eutectic solvents in the extraction stage. In comparison with the conventional method, the proposed method based on deep eutectic solvents isolation can significantly increase APSs recovery, which is beneficial to simplifying the process of polysaccharides purification by using solvent properties to separate extracts and reduce impurities in APSs.

Abstract
In this study, Pennisetum giganteum (PG) was investigated as lignocellulosic feedstock to be pretreated by the acidic and basic deep eutectic solvents (DESs) to generate monomeric sugars. The basic DESs showed excellent efficiency of delignification and saccharification. ChCl/MEA can remove 79.8 % lignin and reserve 89.5 % cellulose. As a result, 95.6 % glucose and 88.0 % xylose yield were obtained, significantly enhanced 9.4 and 15.5 times in contrast with those of the unpretreated PG. The 3D microstructures of raw and pretreated PG were constructed for the first time to better investigate the pretreatment effect on its structure. The increasing porosity (20.5 %) and the reducing CrI (42.2 %) contributed in enhancing enzymatic digestion. Moreover, the recyclability of DES indicated that at least 90 % DES was recovered and 59.5 % lignin still can removed with 79.8 % glucose were obtained after five recycling cycles. Meanwhile, 51.6 % lignin was recovered throughout the recycling process.

Abstract
Exploiting bamboo shoot shells (BSS) as feedstocks for biorefining is a crucial scheme to advance the bioavailability of bamboo shoots. This work applied traditional dilute sulfuric acid pretreatment (DAP) to treat BSS and simultaneously prepared the solid-acid-catalyst by using BSS as carbon-based carriers. The biocatalysis of the prehydrolysate from DAP and enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated BSS was subsequently performed to achieve efficient bioconversion of its carbohydrates. The results displayed that 0.1 g/L H2SO4 employed in DAP was the optimal condition for furfural conversion of BSS during biocatalysis, reaching the maximum of 41%. Meanwhile, the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency of the pretreated BSS also reached the maximum of 97%. This increment of efficiency was ascribed to the enhancement of accessibility and cellulosic crystal size, and also the reduction of surface area of lignin in BSS. Ultimately, the efficient bioutilization of BSS and bioconversion of its carbohydrates were realized by DAP technology.

WASTE MANAGEMENT (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2023; 166:35-45. [PMID: 37148780 DOI: 10.1016/j.wasman.2023.04.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2023] [Revised: 04/07/2023] [Accepted: 04/22/2023] [Indexed: 05/08/2023]
Abstract
Bamboo pulp and papermaking produce a lot of bamboo powder waste, and its resource utilization is of great significance for biomass refining and environmental protection. Here, we propose an integrated approach involving mechanical activation, hydrothermal extraction, and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) multiple delignification for the efficient separation of bamboo powder. Among seven carboxylic acids based DESs, choline chloride (ChCl)-lactic acid (La) DES (1:1) is the most effective, with over 78.0% lignin removal and 88.9% cellulose retained after mechanical-hydrothermal (180 °C, 5 h)-DES (110 °C, 12 h) treatment. Notably, 84.7% of delignification is achieved after three times of ChCl-La DES treatment at 70, 90, and 110 °C respectively. The delignification rate is negatively correlated with the amount of carboxyl group in the DESs. The lower the pKa value, the higher the delignification rate. Additionally, the selectivity for lignin is improved with decreasing solvent polarity. DES treatment effectively degrades the guaiacyl unit lignin fractions and disrupts several β-aryl-ether bonds (e.g., β-O-4, β-β, and β-5). Furthermore, DESs exhibit good recyclability, with less than 10% reduction in delignification after three cycles. Theory calculations confirm that ChCl-carboxylic acid DESs could compete with lignin to break hydrogen bonds in lignocellulosic biomass by providing their chloride, hydroxyl, and carboxyl groups. Overall, this study demonstrates the practical significance of multistage treatment for the effective fractionation of biomass into its three components.

Assessment of pure, mixed and diluted deep eutectic solvents on Napier grass (Cenchrus purpureus): Compositional and characterization studies of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. Carbohydr Polym 2023; 306:120599. [PMID: 36746569 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.120599] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2022] [Revised: 01/12/2023] [Accepted: 01/15/2023] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
Pretreatment with pure, mixed, and diluted deep eutectic solvents (DESs) was evaluated for its effect on Napier grass through compositional and characterization studies. The morphological changes of biomass caused by pretreatment were analyzed by FTIR and XRD. The cellulose and hemicellulose content after pretreatment using mixed DES increased and decreased 1.29- and 4.25-fold, respectively, when compared to untreated Napier grass. The crystallinity index (CrI. %) of mixed DES sample increased due to the maximum removal of hemicellulose (76 %) and delignification of 62 %. The material costs of ChCl/FA and ChCl/LA for a single run are ≈2.16 USD and ≈1.65 USD, respectively. Pure DES showed that ChCl/LA pretreatment enhanced delignification efficiency and that ChCl/FA increased hemicellulose removal. It was estimated that a single run using ChCl/LA:ChCl/FA to achieve maximum hemicellulose and lignin removal would cost approximately ≈1.89 USD. Future work will evaluate the effect of DES mixture on enzyme digestibility and ethanol production from Napier grass. HYPOTHESES: Deep eutectic solvent (DES) pretreatment studies on the fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass have grown exponentially. The use of pure and diluted DES has been reported to improve saccharification efficiency, delignification, and cellulose retention (Gundupalli et al., 2022). These studies have reported maximum lignin removal but also a lower effect on hemicellulose removal from lignocellulosic biomass. It was hypothesized that mixing two pure DESs could result in maximum removal of hemicellulose and lignin after pretreatment. To our knowledge, no studies have been performed to investigate the efficiency of pretreatment using a DES mixture and compared the outcome with pure and diluted DESs. Furthermore, it was hypothesized that using two pure DESs in a mixed form could lower the material cost for each experimental run. Process efficiency was determined by compositional, XRD, and FTIR analysis. Avenues for future research include determining glucose and ethanol yields during the enzymatic saccharification and fermentation processes.

Abstract
Pre-hydrolysate liquor, as an inevitable by-product, contains a large amount of xylose, and is therefore an inexpensive feedstock that can be upgraded to value-added chemical xylonic acid. However, inhibitors, simultaneously formed in lignocellulose pretreatment process, are regarded as the major obstacle for effectively bio-converting xylose in pre-hydrolysate into xylonic acid. In this study, Gluconobacter oxydans, with highly selective and efficient, was employed for xylonic acid production; the impacts of five typical toxic inhibitory compounds on xylonic acid productivity and the activity of the membrane-bound dehydrogenase were evaluated. The results revealed that the inhibitors showed different degrees of influence toward xylonic acid production, and the order of inhibitory effect for acidic inhibitors was formic acid > acetic acid > levulinic acid; the inhibitory effect of aldehyde inhibitors was furfural > 5-hydroxymethyl-furfural. This study provides an important basis of metabolic modification and detoxification process for enhancing inhibitor tolerance and xylonic acid productivity.

Comparative study of acid- and alkali-catalyzed 1,4-butanediol pretreatment for co-production of fermentable sugars and value-added lignin compounds. BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS AND BIOPRODUCTS 2023; 16:52.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Organosolv pretreatment is one of the most efficient methods for delignification and boosting biomass saccharification. As compared to typical ethanol organosolv pretreatments, 1,4-butanediol (BDO) organosolv pretreatment is a high-boiling-point solvent pretreatment, which can generate low pressure in the reactor during high temperature cooking that improves the operation safety. Although several studies showed that organosolv pretreatment can lead to effective delignification and enhancement in glucan hydrolysis, there has been no studies on acid- and alkali-catalyzed BDO pretreatment, as well as their comparison on promoting biomass saccharification and lignin utilization. RESULTS It was shown that BDO organosolv pretreatment was more effective in removing lignin from poplar as compared with typical ethanol organosolv pretreatment under the same pretreatment conditions. HCl-BDO pretreatment with 40 mM acid loading led to 82.04% of original lignin removed from biomass, as compared to the lignin removal of 59.66% in HCl-Ethanol pretreatment. Besides, acid-catalyzed BDO pretreatment was more effective in improving the enzymatic digestibility of poplar than alkali-catalyzed BDO pretreatment. As a result, HCl-BDO with acid loading of 40 mM provided a good enzymatic digestibility of cellulose (91.16%) and the maximum sugar yield of 79.41% from original woody biomass. The linear correlations between physicochemical structure (e.g., fiber swelling, cellulose crystallinity, crystallite size, surface lignin coverage and cellulose accessibility) changes of BDO pretreated poplar and enzymatic hydrolysis were plotted to figure out the main factors that influenced biomass saccharification. Moreover, acid-catalyzed BDO pretreatment mainly brought about the phenolic hydroxyl (PhOH) groups formation in lignin structure, while alkali-catalyzed BDO pretreatment mostly led to the lower molecular weight of lignin. CONCLUSIONS Results indicated that the acid-catalyzed BDO organosolv pretreatment could significantly improve enzymatic digestibility of the highly recalcitrant woody biomass. The great enzymatic hydrolysis of glucan resulted from increased cellulose accessibility, which mostly associated with the higher degree of delignification and hemicellulose solubilization, as well as the more increase in fiber swelling. Besides, lignin was recovered from the organic solvent, which could be used as natural antioxidants. The formation of phenolic hydroxyl groups in lignin structure and the lower molecular weight of lignin contributed to its greater radical scavenging capacity.

Abstract
Lignocellulose represents the most abundant carbon-capturing substance that is convertible for biofuels and bioproduction. Although biomass pretreatments have been broadly applied to reduce lignocellulose recalcitrance for enhanced enzymatic saccharification, they mostly require strong conditions with potential secondary waste release. By classifying all major types of pretreatments that have been recently conducted with different sources of lignocellulose substrates, this study sorted out their distinct roles for wall polymer extraction and destruction, leading to the optimal pretreatments evaluated for cost-effective biomass enzymatic saccharification to maximize biofuel production. Notably, all undigestible lignocellulose residues are also aimed for effective conversion into value-added bioproduction. Meanwhile, desired pretreatments were proposed for the generation of highly-valuable nanomaterials such as cellulose nanocrystals, lignin nanoparticles, functional wood, carbon dots, porous and graphitic nanocarbons. Therefore, this article has proposed a novel strategy that integrates cost-effective and green-like pretreatments with desirable lignocellulose substrates for a full lignocellulose utilization with zero-biomass-waste liberation.

Abstract
Introduction: A combination of deep eutectic solvent with ethanol was developed for pretreatment of Broussonetia papyrifera to effectively extract lignin and promote the subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis. Methods: In order to further explore the optimal conditions for enzymatic hydrolysis, a central composite design method was applied. Results and Discussion: The correlation between each factor and glucose yield was obtained, and the optimal conditions was 160°C, 60 min, the ratio of DES to E was 1/1 (mol/mol). The results showed that compared with control, the glucose yield increased by 130.67% under the optimal pretreatment conditions. Furthermore, the specific surface area of biomass was increased by 66.95%, and the content of xylan and lignin was decreased by 86.71% and 85.83%. The correlation between xylan/lignin removal and enzymatic hydrolysis showed that the removal of lignin facilitated the glucose yield more significantly than that of xylan. To further explore the lignin valorization, the structural and antioxidant analysis of recovered lignin revealed that high temperature was favorable for lignin with good antioxidant performance. This pretreatment is a promising method for separating lignin with high antioxidant activity and improving cellulose digestibility.

Abstract
Application of cost-effective pretreatment of wheat straw is an important stage for massive bioethanol production. A new approach is aimed to enhance the pretreatment of wheat straw by using low-cost ionic liquid [TEA][HSO4] coupled with ultrasound irradiation. The pretreatment was conducted both at room temperature and at 130 °C with a high biomass loading rate of 20% and 20% wt water assisted by ultrasound at 100 W-24 kHz for 15 and 30 min. Wheat straw pretreated at 130 °C for 15 and 30 min had high delignification rates of 67.8% and 74.9%, respectively, and hemicellulose removal rates of 47.0% and 52.2%. Moreover, this pretreatment resulted in producing total reducing sugars of 24.5 and 32.1 mg/mL in enzymatic saccharification, respectively, which corresponds to saccharification yields of 67.7% and 79.8% with commercial cellulase enzyme CelluMax for 72 h. The ethanol generation rates of 38.9 and 42.0 g/L were attained for pretreated samples for 15 and 30 min, equivalent to the yields of 76.1% and 82.2% of the maximum theoretical yield following 48 h of fermentation. This demonstration provided a cheap and promising pretreatment technology in terms of efficiency and shortening the pretreatment time based on applying low-cost ionic liquid and efficient ultrasound pretreatment techniques, which facilitated the feasibility of this approach and could further develop the future of biorefinery.

Abstract
In this study, an ammonia fiber expansion (AFEX)-assisted deep eutectic solvent (DES) pretreatment method was developed for the rapid separation of wheat straw fractions, which reduced the pretreatment time for DES and improved the pretreatment efficiency. This study describes the feasibility of the AFEX-assisted DES pretreatment in terms of both progressive and parallel relationships and analyzes the subsequent enzymatic effect in generating glucose from cellulose. Ammonia fiber expansion-assisted DES one-pot pretreatment at 120 °C, for 1.5 h resulted in an enzymatic efficiency of 98.0 ± 3.1 %. Moreover, the enzyme efficiency remained greater than 85 % after three recovery cycle experiments. The comparison between regenerated-lignin (d-lignin) and alkaline-lignin showed that regenerated lignin has a lower molecular weight and belongs to para-hydroxy-phenyl-guaiacyl-syringyl (H-G-S) type lignin. This study developed is a green and efficient pretreatment process with great potential in the separation and utilization of biomass fractions.

Carbohydr Polym 2023; 299:120182. [PMID: 36876797 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2022.120182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2022] [Revised: 09/03/2022] [Accepted: 09/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
Acid pretreatment of biomass decomposed hemicelluloses but could not effectively remove lignin, which hindered biomass saccharification and carbohydrates utilization. In this work, 2-naphthol-7-sulfonate (NS) and sodium bisulfite (SUL) were simultaneously added to acid pretreatment, which was found to synergistically increase hydrolysis yield of cellulose from 47.9 % to 90.6 %. Based on in-depth investigations, strong linear correlations were observed between cellulose accessibility and lignin removal, fiber swelling, CrI/cellulose ratio, cellulose crystallite size, respectively, indicating that some physicochemical characteristics of cellulose played significant roles in improving cellulose hydrolysis yield. After enzymatic hydrolysis, 84 % carbohydrates could be liberated and recovered as fermentable sugars for subsequent utilization. Mass balance illustrated that for 100 kg raw biomass, 15.1 kg xylonic acid and 20.5 kg ethanol could be co-produced, indicating the efficient utilization of biomass carbohydrates.

Abstract
The enormous production and widespread applications of non -biodegradable plastics lead to their accumulation and toxicity to animals and humans. The issue can be addressed by the development of eco-friendly strategies for the production of biopolymers by utilization of waste residues like agro residues. This will address two societal issues - waste management and the development of an eco-friendly biopolymer, poly-3-hydroxy alkanoates (PHAs). Strategies adopted for utilization of agro-residues, challenges and future perspectives are discussed in detail in this comprehensive review. The possibility of PHA properties improvements can be increased by preparation of blends.

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
Hydrothermal pretreatment (HTP) has long been considered as an efficient and green treatment process on lignocellulosic biomass for bioconversion. However, the variations of cellulose supramolecular structures during HTP as well as their effects on subsequent enzymatic conversion are less understood. In this work, bamboo holocellulose with well-connected cellulose and hemicelluloses polysaccharides were hydrothermally treated under various temperatures. Chemical, morphological, and crystal structural determinations were performed systematically by a series of advanced characterizations. Xylan was degraded to xylooligosaccharides in the hydrolyzates accompanied by the reduced degree of polymerization for cellulose. Cellulose crystallites were found to swell anisotropically, despite the limited decrystallization by HTP. Hydrogen bond linkages between cellulose molecular chains were weakened due to above chemical and crystal variations, which therefore swelled, loosened, and separated the condensed cellulose microfibrils. Samples after HTP present notably increased surface area, favoring the adsorption and subsequent hydrolysis by cellulase enzymes. A satisfying enzymatic conversion yield (>85%) at rather low cellulase enzyme dosage (10 FPU/g glucan) was obtained, which would indicate new understandings on the green and efficient bioconversion process on lignocellulosic biomass.

Abstract
In this study, the mixture of NaOH and deep eutectic solvent (DES) ChCl:UA-TA was firstly used to pretreat waste tomato stalk (TS). The effects of pretreatment time, pretreatment temperature, NaOH dosage, and DES dose were investigated, and the synergistic effects of dilute NaOH and DES combination pretreatment were tested on the influence of enzymatic saccharification. It was found that the relationship between delignification and saccharification rate had a significant linear correction. When TS was pretreated with NaOH (7 wt%)–ChCl:UA-TA (8 wt%) in a solid-to-liquid ratio of 1:10 (wt:wt) at 75 °C for 60 min, the delignification reached 82.1%. The highest yield of reducing sugars from NaOH–ChCl:UA-TA-treated TS could reach 62.5% in an acetate buffer (50 mM, pH 4.8) system containing cellulase (10.0 FPU/g TS) and xylanase (30.0 CBU/g TS) at 50 °C. In summary, effective enzymatic saccharification of TS was developed by a combination pretreatment with dilute NaOH and ChCl:UA-TA, which has potential application in the future.

Abstract
Bamboo pretreatment with alkaline deacetylation-aided hydrogen peroxide-acetic acid (HPAC-NaOH) was investigated for producing high-value-added products. Comparing with HPAC pretreated D. sinicus, the post-treatment of alkaline deacetylation resulted in higher glucose yield of 91.3% and ethanol concentrations of 17.20 g/L, increased by about 20-27%. A strong negative correlation between the content of acetyl with cellulose accessibility and enzymatic hydrolysis yield was showed. The deacetylation of HPAC-DS contributed to the increase of cellulase adsorption capacities in substrates and the variations of hydrophilicity, cellulose crystallinity, and degree of polymerization, which can generate highly reactive cellulosic materials for enzymatic saccharification to produce bioethanol. The HPAC-NaOH pretreatment can provide a promising approach to improve the bioconversion of bamboo to biofuels, and has broad space for the biorefinery of bamboo in the south of China.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of the γ-valerolactone (GVL)/H2O pretreatment system on bamboo (Neosinocalamus affinis) for enzymatic hydrolysis and ethanol fermentation was investigated. The performance characterization of the pretreated bamboo substrates, including the chemical composition, the structural characteristics, and the ability to produce bioethanol, were evaluated. The recovered substrates were enzymatically hydrolyzed for 48 h and then fermented to bioethanol. For the cellulose in the raw bamboo material, the highest cellulose-to-glucose conversion yield (CGCY) was achieved at 140 °C for 2 h with GVL : H2O = 8 : 2, which was 73.39%, and the cellulose-to-ethanol conversion yield (CECY) was 67.00%. This indicated that 183.5 kg of bioethanol could be produced per ton of bamboo, which was 9.71-folds higher than that directly converted from the untreated raw bamboo powder. Under these conditions, 50.60% of the active lignin can be recovered and be used as a wood-derived feedstock for further high-valued utilization. Meanwhile, the maximum concentration of fermentation inhibitors formed after pretreatment was about 140.9 mmol L-1, and had weak inhibition to the subsequent reaction. It has been shown that the cellulose could be effectively separated from bamboo and converted into bioethanol through the GVL/H2O pretreatment system.

Abstract
Globally, the fossil fuel reserves are depleting rapidly and the escalating fuel prices as well as plethora of the pollutants released from the emission of burning fossil fuels cause global warming that massively disturb the ecological balance. Moreover, the unnecessary utilization of non-renewable energy sources is a genuine hazard to nature and economic stability, which demands an alternative renewable source of energy. The lignocellulosic biomass is the pillar of renewable sources of energy. Different conventional pretreatment methods of lignocellulosic feedstocks have employed for biofuel production. However, these pretreatments are associated with disadvantages such as high cost of chemical substances, high load of organic catalysts or mechanical equipment, time consuming, and production of toxic inhibitors causing the environmental pollution. Nanotechnology has shown the promised biorefinery results by overcoming the disadvantages associated with the conventional pretreatments. Recyclability of nanomaterials offers cost effective and economically viable biorefineries processes. Lignolytic and saccharolytic enzymes have immobilized onto/into the nanomaterials for the higher biocatalyst loading due to their inherent properties of high surface area to volume ratios. Nanobiocatalyst enhance the hydrolyzing process of pretreated biomass by their high penetration into the cell wall to disintegrate the complex carbohydrates for the release of high amounts of sugars towards biofuel and various by-products production. Different nanotechnological routes provide cost-effective bioenergy production from the rich repertoires of the forest and agricultural-based lignocellulosic biomass. In this article, a critical survey of diverse biomass pretreatment methods and the nanotechnological interventions for opening up the biomass structure has been carried out.

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.

Abstract
A novel pretreatment system containing deep eutectic solvents and ethanol (DES-E) for synergistic carbohydrate conversion and delignification was reported in this study. The DES-E pretreatment resulted in an enhanced glucose yield compared to individual DES and ethanol pretreatment for the three tested biomass, including Broussonetia papyrifera, corn stover and pine. To further explore the delignification mechanism, the solubilized lignin and residual lignin from Broussonetia papyrifera was recovered and extracted, then thoroughly characterized. The highest total OH content was found in the DES-E solubilized lignin, which could be used as antioxidant. The presence of ethanol in pretreatment liquor could protect the β-O-4 substructure from breakage and reduce lignin condensation, which favors the subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis. Comparable glucose yield and delignification performance was achieved by recycled DES. DES-E pretreatment offers a promising method for lignin isolation and cellulose digestibility improvement simultaneously.

Abstract
Abundant seawater resources can replace the shortage of freshwater resources. The co-production of xylo-oligosaccharides and glucose from sugarcane bagasse by subcritical CO2-assisted seawater pretreatment was studied in this paper. We investigated the effects of pretreatment conditions of temperature, CO2 pressure and reaction time on the yield of xylo-oligosaccharides in subcritical CO2-assisted seawater systems. The maximum xylo-oligosaccharide yield of 68.23% was obtained at 165 °C/2 MPa/5 min. After further enzymatic hydrolysis of the solid residue, the highest glucose yield of 94.45% was obtained. In this system, there is a synergistic effect of mixed ions in seawater and CO2 to depolymerize xylan into xylo-oligosaccharides with a lower degree of polymerization. At the same time, the addition of CO2 increased the pore size and porosity of sugarcane bagasse, improved the efficiency of enzymatic hydrolysis and increased the yield of glucose. Therefore, this study provides a more environmentally friendly and sustainable process for the co-production of xylo-oligosaccharides and glucose from sugarcane bagasse, and improves the utilization of seawater resources.

Abstract
A green method for co-production of value-added xylooligosaccharides (XOS) and glucose from birch was demonstrated using hot water pretreatment. Effects of pretreatment severity factor (Log R0) on XOS production and enzymatic hydrolysis were investigated. At Log R0 of 4.05 (180 °C, 50 min), the maximum hydrolysis yield (80.8%) was obtained. At Log R0 of 3.91 (170 °C, 70 min), the maximum XOS yield (46.1%) was obtained, however the hydrolysis yield decreased to 70.3%. To achieve both the high XOS yield and high glucose output, Tween 80 addition (0.075 g/g cellulose) was employed, leading to an improvement in hydrolysis yield from 70.3% to 89.4%. From a mass balance perspective, 104.6 g of XOS and 372.9 g of glucose could be produced from 1000 g birch. These results demonstrated that birch sawdust is a promising lignocellulosic material for co-production of XOS and glucose.

Abstract
A three-constituent deep eutectic solvent (3c-DES) pretreatment with choline chloride-oxalic acid-ethylene glycol was applied to examine its effectiveness on bamboo residues. The 3c-DES pretreatment can remove 91.09% xylan and significantly improved the 72 h hydrolysis yield of D. sinicus by 6.3 and 1.7 times as compared with the liquid hot water and two-constituent deep eutectic solvent (2c-DES) pretreatment. The introduction of ethylene glycol (EG) into choline chloride (ChCl)/ oxalic acid (OA) decreased the content of surface lignin and the condensation of lignin, which contributed to the increase of hydrophilic nature and cellulose accessibility in substrates. Moreover, higher glucose (85.72%) and xylose (91.05%) yields of 3c-DES pretreated bamboo were achieved with the addition of Tween 80. The 3c-DES system provides an alternative approach for the development of efficient bamboo pretreatment, and had broad space for bamboo biorefinery in southern China.

Insights into lignocellulosic waste fractionation for lignin nanospheres fabrication using acidic/alkaline deep eutectic solvents. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 286:131798.

Abstract
Facile fractionation of lignocellulosic waste into useable forms is essential to achieve a multi-product treatment process especially when the resulting lignin streams are expected for high-value materials valorization. Despite acidic/alkaline deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are promising solvents for lignocellulosic waste fractionation, there is little information about their differences in the fractionation and lignin extraction profiles. In this work, four DESs that were cataloged to acidic types (formic acid-choline chloride, lactic acid-choline chloride) and alkaline types (monoethanolamine-choline chloride, glycerol-K2CO3) were investigated to compare their abilities of bamboo waste fractionation. Physicochemical properties of these resulting cellulose, lignin and derived lignin nanospheres (LNPs) were also assessed. Results showed that DESs could selectively extract lignin via cleaving lignin-carbohydrate linkages and lignin ether bonds. Acidic DESs pretreatments were more effective in biomass delignification (~95.0 %), while alkaline DESs showed better polysaccharide retention. Glycerol-K2CO3 LNPs exhibited much smaller sphere size (50-100 nm) while acidic DESs LNPs showed higher thermal stability due to higher extent of lignin condensation. In addition, MEA-ChCl could introduce amine groups onto lignin hydroxyl. This work provided insightful information for tailoring technique routes to selective lignocellulosic waste fractionation, while facilitating the downstream applications of the obtained cellulose/lignin.

Short-time deep eutectic solvents pretreatment enhanced production of fermentable sugars and tailored lignin nanoparticles from abaca. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 192:417-425.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DES) pretreatment is a promising approach to decrease "biomass recalcitrance" and boost the cellulose bioconversion as well as lignin valorization. In this study, a short-time DES pretreatment strategy was performed to enhance the production of high-yield fermentable sugars and tailored lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) from abaca. The glucose yield reached 92.4% under the optimal pretreatment condition (110 °C, 30 min), which was dramatically increased in comparison with that (9.5%) of control abaca. Simultaneously, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) techniques indicated that the removed and regenerated DES lignin fractions displayed depolymerized structures and have relatively low molecular weight with relatively homogeneous morphology and narrow size distribution. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) analysis indicated that these lignin fractions are LNPs and the size of the optimal LNPs fraction is ranged from 30 nm to 50 nm. Moreover, all the DES lignin exhibited excellent antioxidant activities as compared to the commercial antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), which can be used as a promising natural antioxidant in industry. In short, this study demonstrated that the short-time DES pretreatment will improve the enzymatic digestibility and facilitate the controllable production and valorization of LNPs from abaca biomass, which will further promote the economic and overall benefits of biorefinery.

Abstract
The addition of various metallic chlorides in pretreatment of lignocellulose have been widely reported to improve cellulose conversion via cellulolytic processing. However, the interaction mechanism between lignin and metallic cations is not well known. In this work, pretreatment with different concentrations of FeCl3 and AlCl3 were performed upon waste wheat straw to enhance enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency. Results showed that pretreatment with FeCl3 and AlCl3 could facilitate the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency increasing from 50.4% to 82.9% and 76.6%, which was attributed to the enhancement of xylan removal by 33.8% (FeCl3) and 36.5% (AlCl3), respectively. Meanwhile, the surface charge, hydrophobicity, and protein adsorption capacity of lignin from waste wheat straw can be decreased by 3.3 mV, 0.6 L/g, 7.6 mg/g (FeCl3). This was due to the depolymerization of lignin in metallic chlorides pretreatment. These findings will be used to further evaluate the effect of metallic chlorides in biorefinery pretreatment.

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
Chinese hickory shell, a by-product of the food industry, is still not utilized and urgent to develop sustainable technologies for its valorization. This research focuses on the systematical evaluation of degraded products and xylooligosaccharide production with high yield from the shell via hydrothermal process. The pretreatment was carried out in a bath pressurized reactor at 140-220 °C for 0.5-2 h. The results indicated that the pretreatment condition strongly affected the chemical structures and compositions of the liquid fraction. The maximum yield of XOS (55.3 wt%) with limitation of by-products formation was achieved at 160 °C for 2 h. High temperature (220 °C) and short time (0.5 h) contributed to hydrolysis of xylooligosaccharide with high DP to yield 37.5 wt% xylooligosaccharide with DP from 2 to 6. Xylooligosaccharide obtained mainly consisted of xylan with branches according to the HSQC NMR analysis. Overall, the production of XOS with a high yield from food waste will facilitate the valorization of food waste in the biorefinery industry.

Abstract
The kinetics studies is of great importance for the understanding of the mechanism of hemicellulose pyrolysis and expanding the applications of hemicellulose. In the past years, rapid progress has been paid on the kinetics studies of hemicellulose hydrolysis. In this article, we first introduced the hydrolysis of hemicelluloses via various strategies such as autohydrolysis, dilute acid hydrolysis, catalytic hydrolysis, and enzymatic hydrolysis. Then, the history of kinetic models during hemicellulose hydrolysis was summarized. Special attention was paid to the oligosaccharides as intermediates or substrates, acid as catalyst, and thermogravimetric as analyzer method during the hemicellulose hydrolysis. Furthermore, the problems and suggestions of kinetic models during hemicellulose hydrolysis was provided. It expected that this article will favor the understanding of the mechanism of hemicellulose pyrolysis.

Abstract
In these studies, a low-cost and energy efficiency production of cellulosic ethanol from sugarcane bagasse (SCB) using one-pot without solid-liquid separation, water washing, and detoxification was performed. Firstly, SCB was pretreated using liquid hot water as the only reagent at 210 °C for a short time (0 min), and the solid liquid ratio (SLR) was 1:20 (w/v). Then, the whole slurry of pretreated SCB was enzymatically hydrolyzed and fermented for cellulosic ethanol in one-pot. The results indicated that the one-pot preparation for ethanol achieved a high total fermentable sugar conversion of 84.52 ± 1.24%, containing 88.61 ± 1.57% of glucose and 78.01 ± 1.63% of xylose. Moreover, the ethanol yield reached 257 ± 5.51 mg/g SCB, which was 77.56 ± 1.64% of the theoretical ethanol conversion from SCB. Importantly, there was no wastewater discharge in the whole process. Overall, the present work provides an economically feasible method for ethanol production.

Abstract
Hydrogen bond donor (HBD) in ChCl-based deep eutectic solvent (DESs) had significant influence on the Sorghum straw (SS) pretreatment. Lactic acid (LAC) was chosen as the appropriate HBD for preparing ChCl-based DES to pretreat Sorghum straw (SS). Furthermore, sequential pretreatment with dilute sodium hydroxide (0.75 wt%) for 1 h at 121 °C and ChCl:LAC soaking at 140 °C for 40 min was applied to pretreat SS for removing lignin (78.4%) and xylan (67.6%). Hydrolysis for 72 h, the reducing sugar yield reached 94.9%. Moreover, relationships of delignification and xylan removal with saccharification were explored after pretreatment. Finally, the fermentability of SS-hydrolysates was verified by bioethanol fermentation by S. cerevissiae with the yield of 0.45 g ethanol/g glucose. No significant inhibition was observed on ethanol fermentation. Obviously, establishment of high-efficient combination pretreatment with alkali extraction and ChCl:LAC soaking was successfully demonstrated for enhancing enzymatic saccharification of SS.

Abstract
The prerequisite for cellulosic biochemical production from lignocellulosic materials is efficient enzymatic hydrolysis that is a complicated heterogeneous catalytic process and affected by the complex lignin-cellulose-hemicellulose network. Understanding the main influencing factors for enzymatic hydrolysis is of substantial significance to guide the design of a biorefinery process. An experimental study of the pretreatment indicated that acid pretreatment is preferable for herbaceous feedstocks. Therefore, the classic dilute sulfuric acid pretreatment was utilized to hydrolyze and remove hemicellulose from three representative types of agricultural straws at various intensities. From the enzymatic hydrolysis of residual cellulose perspective, the crystallinity index and enzyme accessibility of the pretreated materials were also mathematically correlated to hemicellulose removals, respectively. For the better insight and understanding of the mathematical logics, the linear and nonlinear kinetic models were therefore compared, and the relationship was established by the five-parameter logistic equations and Allosteric sigmoidal models with well fittings.

Abstract
In order to solve the bottleneck of low methane production in anaerobic codigestion of excess sludge (ES) and plant waste (PW), a new strategy of enhancing hydrolysis and acidification by rhamnolipid (RL) was proposed under thermophilic condition. The results showed that the optimal dosage of RL was 50 g/kg total suspended solids, and the maximum yield of methane was 198.5 mL/g volatile suspended solids (VSS), which was 2.3 times of that in the control. RL promoted the dissolution of organic matter in the codigestion process of ES and PW, and the higher the dosage of RL, the higher the concentration of soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) in the fermentation broth. When RL was 100 g/kg, the maximum content of SCOD in fermentation broth was 2,451 mg/L, and the contents of soluble protein and polysaccharide were 593 mg/L and 419 mg/L on 10 d, respectively, which were significantly higher than other groups. In addition, the yield of VFA in RL group was also significantly increased, and acetate and propionate were the main components of VFAs. This research work provides data support for the resource utilization of ES and PW, and expands the application field of RL.

Abstract
Biomass recalcitrance hinders efficient utilization of lignocellulosic biomass, making pretreatment process a crucial step for successful biorefinery process. Pretreatment processes have been developed for processing biomass, while technical obstacles including intensive energy requirement, high operational cost, equipment corrosions resulted from currently applied techniques promote the development of new pretreatment process for biomass. The deep eutectic solvent (DES) has been recognized as a promising solvent for biomass pretreatment, although the DES application toward biomass is still in its nascent stage. This review summarized the current researches using DES for biomass pretreatment, focusing particularly on lignin extraction and saccharification enhancement of lignocellulosic biomass. The mechanisms for biomass fractionation using DES as agents are introduced. Prospect and challenge were outlined.
