Lignin Chemistry : Characterization, Isolation,and Valorization Hardback

Edited by Yuhe (Chinese Academy of Sciences) Liao, Bert F. (KU Leuven, Beligium) Sels

Hardback

Description

Lignin Chemistry A thorough reference guide to Lignin Chemistry, from inherent structure revealing to transformation into chemicals, fuels, and materials Climate change, driven by rising greenhouse gas emissions, is the defining challenge of our time.

Reducing our dependence on non-renewable resources such as fossil fuels will require alternative, more sustainable resources.

Lignin, the only widely-occurring, renewable, aromatic bio-polymer in Nature, has a range of application potential in the production of chemicals, fuels, and other industrial materials.

Lignin science has become one of the fastest-growing and most significant areas of sustainable chemistry in the world.

Lignin Chemistry: Characterization, Isolation, and Valorization presents a systematic, multidisciplinary overview of this cutting-edge field and its current state of research.

Beginning with a robust characterization of lignin, the book addresses the isolation and transformation of lignin, as well as the book inspires with a plethora of applications.

The result is a critical resource for researchers and professionals in any area of academic or industry where renewable biomass, in particular lignin, has importance.

Lignin Chemistry readers will find: Thermochemical and catalytic strategies for lignin conversionDetailed discussion of the valorization of lignin towards biopolymers, nanoparticles, carbon fibers and materials, and hydrogelsAn authorial team with immense and varied research experience Lignin Chemistry is ideal for chemical engineers, catalytic chemists, biochemists, material scientists, and analytical chemists in industry.
