Bioethanol production from agricultural residues as lignocellulosic biomass feedstock's waste valorization approach: A comprehensive review. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 879:163158. [PMID: 37001650 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.163158] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2022] [Revised: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
Bioenergy is becoming very popular, drawing attention as a renewable energy source that may assist in managing growing energy costs, besides possibly affording revenue to underprivileged farmers and rural populations worldwide. Bioethanol made from agricultural residual-biomass provides irreplaceable environmental, socioeconomic, and strategic benefits and can be considered as a safe and cleaner liquid fuel alternative to traditional fossil fuels. There is a significant advancement made at the bench scale towards fuel ethanol production from agricultural lignocellulosic materials (ALCM). These process technologies include pretreatment of ALCM biomass employment of cellulolytic enzymes for depolymerizing carbohydrate polymers into fermentable sugars to effectively achieve it by applying healthy fermentative microbes for bioethanol generation. Amongst all the available process methods, weak acid hydrolysis followed by enzymatic hydrolysis process technique. Recovering higher proficient celluloses is more attractive in terms of economic benefits and long-term environmental effects. Besides, the state of ALCM biomass based bioethanol production methods is discussed in detail, which could make it easier for the scientific and industrial communities to utilize agricultural leftovers properly.

Hasanov I, Shanmugam S, Kikas T. Extraction and isolation of lignin from ash tree (Fraxinus exselsior) with protic ionic liquids (PILs). CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 290:133297. [PMID: 34921853 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2021.133297] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2021] [Revised: 12/01/2021] [Accepted: 12/11/2021] [Indexed: 05/11/2023]
Abstract
Protic ionic liquids (PILs) have been considered effective solvents for the selective separation and recovery of cellulose from lignocellulosic biomass. However, PILs can also be utilized for the extraction and conversion of lignin into fuels and value-added products. The objective of this work was to study the extraction of lignin from ash tree (Fraxinus exselsior) hardwood biomass using three different PILs-pyridinium acetate, pyridinium formate [Py][For], and pyrrolidinium acetate. Fiber analysis was used to determine the biochemical composition of the left-over biomass after lignin separation. FTIR and NMR were applied to determine the structure of dissolved lignin. Additionally, the regeneration potential and recyclability of PILs were assessed. Our results demonstrate that treatment with [Py][For] at 75 °C yields the highest percentage of lignin dissolution from biomass. This indicates that PILs could be used for Kraft lignin dissolution as well as separation of lignin from raw, milled biomass.
