And lignin is the only renewable source of aromatic compounds, which are chemically similar to molecules found in ...

Lignin is the largest renewable aromatic source on Earth, so today Xiao’s team looks more closely at lignin chemical structures. “The chemical changes during pyrolysis of lignin were very ...

Professor Bugg's research group is working on one of the unsolved problems of the biorefinery: how to convert the aromatic polymer lignin into useful chemicals. Lignin is very hard to break down, but ...

Further analysis identified specific DOM compounds, including phenolic and polyphenolic substances such as lignin/CRAM-like ...
