Lignin As a Source of Phenolic Compounds: from Lignin Extraction to Its Transformation by Different Routes Lignin as a source of phenolic compounds: from lignin extraction to its transformation by different routes A dissertation presented by Javier Fernández Rodríguez In Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in Renewable Materials Engineering by the University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU Under the supervision of Dr. Jalel Labidi Dr. María González Alriols Chemical and Environmental Engineering Department Engineering School of Gipuzkoa Donostia-San Sebastián 2020 (c)2020 JAVIER FERNANDEZ RODRIGUEZ “Dalli qui nu canta, verdi qui nu livanta” II Summary In the last decades, considerable interest has been put in using lignocellulosic streams, which have been traditionally considered as wastes, to be converted into value-added products, such as fuel, chemicals and biomaterials, which are currently obtained from fossil sources. Lignin, the most plenty polymer as an aromatic source in nature has been traditionally considered as a by-product or side stream from pulp and paper process, although lignin commercialization as a source of phenolic compounds has gained more and more relevance lately. However, several drawbacks have to be still overcome, such as the high polydispersity and high content in impurities of the obtained lignin samples, which lead to generate a recalcitrant behavior that hinders its transformation processes into high value- added chemical compounds. Lignin-based products must be competitive with their petroleum-derived counterparts. Hence, it is very important to design energetically efficient processes for lignin extraction and purification. For this purpose, lignin-based products have to be assumed as a section of an integrated biorefinery where multiple products are obtained and in this line being able to compete in a realistic scenario. In this work, the identification of different routes to extract lignin and its further conversion into small phenolic compounds has been developed. All approached scenarios were proposed to build up robust processes capable to reduce the high variability of the lignocellulosic process designed to obtain chemicals or building blocks. Lignin samples from different lignocellulosic sources (blue agave plant, almond shell and olive tree pruning), delignification processes (soda or organosolv) and process stages (lignin from bleaching stages) were extracted and characterized physico-chemically to define the best alternatives for obtaining different products. Thereafter, several strategies were considered to depolymerize the lignin molecule into small phenolic monomers, such as catechol and its derivatives compounds, cresols, syringol, guaiacol, etc. These depolymerization reactions were applied to the obtained lignin samples collected from the extraction processes. Moreover, an innovative alternative to break down lignin directly from the black liquors obtained during the lignocellulosic biomass delignification process was also approached. Finally, the techno-economic analysis of the lignin extraction and depolymerization processes was conducted to select the most suitable routes in terms of product yields, environmental wastes, energy demands, and economic balance.

  • Basics of Kraft Pulping
    Lignin Wood is composed of many chemical components, primarily extractives, carbohydrates, and lignin, which are distributed nonuniformly as the result of anatomical structure. Lignin is derived from the Latin term lignum, which means wood.1 Anselme Payen (1838) was the first to recognize the composite nature of wood and referred to a carbon- rich substance as the “encrusting material” which embedded cellulose in the wood. Schulze (1865) later defined this encrusting material as lignin. Lignin has been described as a random, three-dimensional network polymer comprised of variously linked phenylpropane units.2 Lignin is the second most abundant biological material on the planet, exceeded only by cellulose and hemicellulose, and comprises 15-25% of the dry weight of woody plants. This macromolecule plays a vital role in providing mechanical support to bind plant fibers together. Lignin also decreases the permeation of water through the cell walls of the xylem, thereby playing an intricate role in the transport of water and nutrients. Finally, lignin plays an important function in a plant’s natural defense against degradation by impeding penetration of destructive enzymes through the cell wall. Although lignin is necessary to trees, it is undesirable in most chemical papermaking fibers and is removed by pulping and bleaching processes. 1.1.1 Biosynthesis Plant lignins can be broadly divided into three classes: softwood (gymnosperm), hardwood (angiosperm) and grass or annual plant (graminaceous) lignin.3 Three different phenylpropane units, or monolignols, are responsible for lignin biosynthesis.4 Guaiacyl lignin is composed principally of coniferyl alcohol units, while guaiacyl-syringyl lignin contains monomeric units from coniferyl and sinapyl alcohol.

  • Kraft and Soda Pulping of White Rot Pretreated Betung Bamboo
    Kraft and Soda Pulping of White Rot Pretreated Betung Bamboo Widya Fatriasari, Riksfardini A Ermawar, Faizatul Falah, Dede HY Yanto, Deddy TN Adi, Sita H Anita, Euis Hermiati R&D Unit for Biomaterials, Indonesian Institute of Sciences Jl. Raya Bogor KM 46 Cibinong 16911. Corresponding author: [email protected] (Widya Fatriasari) Abstract This research was conducted to study the effects of pre-treatment with white-rot fungi on pulp properties of betung bamboo. Inoculum stocks of white-rot fungi (25 ml) were injected into polybags contained barkless fresh bamboo chips. Each polybag contained 214.9–286.8 g oven dry weight of chips. Bamboo chips in the polybags were inoculated by Pleurotus ostreatus and Trametes versicolor. Both of them were then incubated for 30 and 45 days at room temperature. Bamboo chips were cooked using soda and Kraft processes. The cooked bamboo chips were then defiberize using disc refiner for 3 times. Pulp yield, kappa number and degree of freeness of the pulp were then analyzed. The treatment of two white rot fungi, gave different effects on the characteristic of betung bamboo pulp. The effects of fungi treatment on kappa number and degree of freeness can be seen only at samples cooked using kraft process. Incubation time did not affect pulp yield of bamboo treated with both fungi, but it affected kappa number and degree of freeness of bamboo pulp cooked using kraft process. Bamboo treated with T. versicolor incubated for 45 days and cooked using kraft process produced the best pulp quality with high pulp yield. Key words: betung bamboo, biopulping, degree of freeness, kappa number, pulp yield.

  • Making Paper from Trees
    Making Paper from Trees Forest Service U.S. Department of Agriculture FS-2 MAKING PAPER FROM TREES Paper has been a key factor in the progress of civilization, especially during the past 100 years. Paper is indispensable in our daily life for many purposes. It conveys a fantastic variety and volume of messages and information of all kinds via its use in printing and writing-personal and business letters, newspapers, pamphlets, posters, magazines, mail order catalogs, telephone directories, comic books, school books, novels, etc. It is difficult to imagine the modern world without paper. Paper is used to wrap packages. It is also used to make containers for shipping goods ranging from food and drugs to clothing and machinery. We use it as wrappers or containers for milk, ice cream, bread, butter, meat, fruits, cereals, vegetables, potato chips, and candy; to carry our food and department store purchases home in; for paper towels, cellophane, paper handkerchiefs and sanitary tissues; for our notebooks, coloring books, blotting paper, memo pads, holiday greeting and other “special occasion’’ cards, playing cards, library index cards; for the toy hats, crepe paper decorations, paper napkins, paper cups, plates, spoons, and forks for our parties. Paper is used in building our homes and schools-in the form of roofing paper, and as paperboard- heavy, compressed product made from wood pulp-which is used for walls and partitions, and in such products as furniture. Paper is also used in linerboard, “cardboard,” and similar containers. Wood pulp is the principal fibrous raw material from which paper is made, and over half of the wood cut in this country winds up in some form of paper products.

H. CHIDESTER, Senior Engineer, and J. N. McGOVERN, Assistant Technologist Large quantities of red gum, among other hardwoods, are available in pulpwood size in various parts of the South. A. market for rid gum pulp- wood would provide an outlet for thinnings and cleanings to supplement its present use for lumber and be of material aid in improving forestry practice in many of these areas. The experiments reported here were made to determine the suita- bility of red gum for the manufacture of corrugating board, a high tonnage product in growing demand. Also, preliminary trials were made to furnish information on the suitability of the wood for sulphite pulp. For corru- gating board the semichemical pulping process, which has given a high yield of pulp suitable for this purpose from other hardwoods with a con- sequently low cost, was used. WOOD USED The sample of red gum (Liouidambax styraciflua) consisting of about 5 cords, supplied through the courtesy of the Arkansas State Forest Service, was cut in Prairie County, Arkansas. The stand was second growth and contained about 200 trees per acre, averaging 10 inches d.b.h. The properties reportegl for the wood are given in tables 1, 2, and 3.

  • USE of NONWOOD PLANT FIBERS for PULP and PAPER INDUSTRY in ASIA: POTENTIAL in CHINA by Mudit Chandra Dr
    USE OF NONWOOD PLANT FIBERS FOR PULP AND PAPER INDUSTRY IN ASIA: POTENTIAL IN CHINA By Mudit Chandra Degree Paper Submitted to the Faculty of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF FORESTRY IN WOOD SCIENCE AND FOREST PRODUCTS APPROVED: A. L. Hammett, Chairman J. D. Dolan C. D. West August, 1998 Blacksburg, Virginia USE OF NONWOOD PLANT FIBERS FOR PULP AND PAPER INDUSTRY IN ASIA: POTENTIAL IN CHINA by Mudit Chandra Dr. A. L. Hammett, Chairman Department of Wood Science and Forest Products (ABSTRACT) The pulp and paper industry around the world has been growing rapidly. As a result there has been a huge demand for pulp and paper making raw material. Recent years have seen a spurt in use of nonwood fibers being used as a raw material for this purpose. Although some of the nonwood fibers used for papermaking are used because of their fine paper making qualities, majority of nonwood fibers is used to overcome the shortage of wood fibers. As a result their use is more widespread in countries with shortage of wood. The use of nonwood fibers in pulp and paper industry is fraught with problems. Right from supply of raw material to the properties of finished paper, majority of nonwood raw material has proven to be economically inferior to wood. But over the last few years, technological breakthrough in almost all the fields of papermaking have made nonwood more competitive with wood as a raw material for papermaking. Although till recently, use of nonwood fibers for pulp and paper making was concentrated in countries with limited wood supply, it is now showing an increasing trend even in countries with adequate wood supply due to environmental considerations.

Opponent: Professor Hasan Jameel, North Carolina State University, USA II “Dedicated to my mother and father.” III Abstract Lignin is one of the most abundant biopolymers. Approximately 70 million tons of technical lignin is generated annually, but only little is used for products other than energy. The complexity of lignin hinders full utilization in high-value products and materials. In spite of the large recent progress of knowledge of lignin structure and biosynthesis, much is still not fully understood, including structural inhomogeneity. We made synthetic lignin at different pH’s and obtained structural differences that might explain the structural inhomogeneity of lignin.

  • Part I Chemical Pulping
    1 Part I Chemical Pulping Handbook of Pulp. Edited by Herbert Sixta Copyright © 2006 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH &Co. KGaA, Weinheim ISBN: 3-527-30999-3 3 1 Introduction Herbert Sixta 1.1 Introduction Industrial pulping involves the large-scale liberation of fibers from lignocellulosic plant material, by either mechanical or chemical processes. Chemical pulping relies mainly on chemical reactants and heat energy to soften and dissolve lignin in the plant material, partially followed by mechanical refining to separate fibers. Mechanical pulping involves the pretreatment of wood with steam (and some- times also with aqueous sulfite solution) prior to the separation into fibrous mate- rial by abrasive refining or grinding. Depending on its end-use, the material recov- ered from such processes – the unbleached pulp – may be further treated by screening, washing, bleaching and purification (removal of low molecular-weight hemicelluloses) operations. For any given type of production, the properties of the unbleached pulp are de- termined by the structural and chemical composition of the raw material. The variation in fiber dimension and chemical composition of some selected fibers is detailed in Tab. 1.1. By far, the predominant use of the fiber material is the manufacture of paper, where it is re-assembled as a structured network from an aqueous solution. Fiber morphology such as fiber length and fiber geometry have a decisive influence on the papermaking process. A high fiber wall thickness to fiber diameter ratio means that the fibers will be strong, but that they may not be able to bond as effec- tively with each other in the sheet-forming process.

  • Soda Pulping of Rapeseed Straw
    CELLULOSE CHEMISTRY AND TECHNOLOGY SODA PULPING OF RAPESEED STRAW FRANTIŠEK POT ŮČ EK, BIJAY GURUNG and KATE ŘINA HÁJKOVÁ University of Pardubice, Faculty of Chemical Technology, Institute of Chemistry and Technology of Macromolecular Materials, 532 10 Pardubice, Czech Republic ✉Corresponding author:František Pot ůč ek, [email protected] Received September 18, 2013 The aim of this work was to conduct batch soda pulping of rapeseed straw (species Brassica napus L. convar. napus ) without and with addition of anthraquinone as a catalyst in the cooking liquor. To characterize the chemical composition of rapeseed straw, cellulose, holocellulose, lignin, ash, and extractives were determined. The effect of anthraquinone addition upon the degree of delignification, total yield, and amounts of rejects was investigated. For selected samples of pulp, the fibre length, degree of polymerization, as well as strength properties of soda and soda-AQ pulps were measured as well. The results obtained showed that the content of lignin in rapeseed straw is lower than that in softwoods. The presence of anthraquinone in cooking liquor accelerates delignification, however, for a given H- factor, lower kappa number and total yield were achieved, compared with cooking without anthraquinone. Also, anthraquinone in cooking liquor had a positive effect upon the decrease of rejects, mainly at a lower H-factor. The unbleached soda pulp comprising short fibres, below 1 mm, presented greater tensile strength in comparison with waste paper. Keywords : rapeseed straw, delignification, soda pulp, yield, anthraquinone INTRODUCTION Wood has been the dominant fibre source in process without anthraquinone addition, pulps the pulp and paper industry in the world so far, have been produced from canola stalks, 9 and although non-wood fibre material has been rapeseed straw 10 as well.
