Noppawan P, Sangon S, Chatsiri P, Khunmood N, Aintharabunya S, Supanchaiyamat N, Hunt AJ. Sustainable solvents for β-diketone extraction from wheat straw wax and their molecular self-assembly into nano-structured tubules for hydrophobic coatings. RSC Adv 2023; 13:2427-2437. [PMID: 36741189 PMCID: PMC9844676 DOI: 10.1039/d2ra07581d] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Nonpolar, nonperoxide forming, sustainable and potentially bio-based solvents, namely 2,2,5,5-tetramethyloxolane (TMO) and 2,5-diethyl-2,5-dimethyloxolane (DEDMO), were utilized as an alternative to toxic petroleum-based hydrocarbon solvents for extraction of hentriacontane-14,16-dione from waste wheat straw waxes. This work is the first to report the application of DEDMO as a solvent for the extraction of natural products. The sustainable methodology developed in this research provided considerable advantages over previously reported systems in terms of high extraction yields, excellent selectivity towards the β-diketones and low amounts of waste generated. DEDMO provided the highest recovery yield for all the sustainable solvents investigated, recovering 23.7% of the wax (which is a 68.8% yield of the β-diketone). The extracted lipophilic hentriacontane-14,16-dione was utilised in combination with the sustainable solvents TMO or DEDMO to facilitate the creation of highly hydrophobic coatings. Moreover, the use of DEDMO was found to aid in the self-assembly of nano-structured tubule formation of both the unrefined wax and isolated β-diketone. Green metric evaluation using process mass intensity (PMI), E-factor, solvent intensity (SI), and water intensity (WI) demonstrated that the described extraction procedure for hentriacontane-14,16-dione was highly sustainable and safer than the previous methodology. This sustainable manufacturing process may create the potential to valorise agricultural wastes as part of a holistic biorefinery.

Recent advances in lignocellulosic biomass for biofuels and value-added bioproducts - A critical review. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2022; 344:126195. [PMID: 34710596 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2021.126195] [Citation(s) in RCA: 108] [Impact Index Per Article: 54.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2021] [Revised: 10/16/2021] [Accepted: 10/19/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass is a highly renewable, economical, and carbon-neutral feedstock containing sugar-rich moieties that can be processed to produce second-generation biofuels and bio-sourced compounds. However, due to their heterogeneous multi-scale structure, the lignocellulosic materials have major limitations to valorization and exhibit recalcitrance to saccharification or hydrolysis by enzymes. In this context, this review focuses on the latest methods available and state-of-the-art technologies in the pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass, which aids the disintegration of the complex materials into monomeric units. In addition, this review deals with the genetic engineering techniques to develop advanced strategies for fermentation processes or microbial cell factories to generate desired products in native or modified hosts. Further, it also intends to bridge the gap in developing various economically feasible lignocellulosic products and chemicals using biorefining technologies.

Hydrothermal pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass for hemicellulose recovery. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2021; 342:126033. [PMID: 34592451 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2021.126033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2021] [Revised: 09/21/2021] [Accepted: 09/23/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
The hemicellulosic fraction recovery is of interest for integrated processes in biorefineries, considering the possibility of high economic value products produced from their structural compounds of this polysaccharide. However, to perform an efficient recovery, it is necessary to use biomass fractionation techniques, and hydrothermal pretreatment is highlighted as a valuable technique in the hemicellulose recovery by applying high temperatures and pressure, causing dissolution of the structure. Considering the possibility of this pretreatment technique for current approaches to hemicellulose recovery, this article aimed to explore the relevance of hydrothermal pretreatment techniques (sub and supercritical water) as a strategy for recovering the hemicellulosic fraction from lignocellulosic biomass. Discussions about potential products to be generated, current market profile, and perspectives and challenges of applying the technique are also addressed.
