Lignocellulosic nanofibers from triticale straw : the influence of hemicelluloses and lignin in their production and properties
(Elsevier, 2017-05-01)
The present work aims to determine the influence of hemicellulose and lignin content in the production of lignocellulosic nanofibers (LCNF) from triticale straws. Triticale straws were digested and then gradually delignified, ...

(Green Wave Publishing of Canada, 2017-09-01)
There is a global interest in replacing fossil fuels with renewable sources of energy. The present review evaluates the significance of South-American wood industrial wastes for bioethanol production. Four countries have ...
Lignocellulosics as sustainable resources for production of bioplastics : a review
(Elsevier, 2017-09-20)
The bio-based economy requires a sustainable utilization of bioresources for production of a range of products, including pulp, paper, chemicals, biofuel and bioplastics. Currently, various types of bioplastics are produced ...
Hydrothermal treatments applied to agro- and forest- industrial waste to produce high added-value compounds
(North Carolina State University. Department of Wood and Paper Science, 2017-01-01)
Agro- and forest-industrial wastes are abundant and low cost sources of carbohydrates and phenolic compounds, which can be converted into biofuels, biomaterials, and high added-value compounds by different pathways in small ...
Key role of anionic trash catching system on the efficiency of lignocellulose nanofibers in industrial recycled slurries
(Springer, 2017-11-29)
The processing of recycled paper into packaging materials is becoming one of the most important activities of paper mills. However, the use of recycled paper as a raw material causes an important increase of dissolved ...
