Title: Controlled Assembly of Lignocellulosic Biomass Components and Properties of Reformed Materials

Abstract

Reforming whole lignocellulosic biomass into value-added materials has yet to be achieved mainly due to the infusible nature of biomass and its recalcitrance to dissolve in common organic solvents. Recently, the solubility of biomass in ionic liquids (ILs) has been explored to develop all-lignocellulosic materials; however, efficient dissolution and therefore production of value-added materials with desired mechanical properties remain a challenge. This article presents an approach to producing high-performance lignocellulosic films from hybrid poplar wood. An autohydrolysis step that removes ≤50% of the hemicellulose fraction is performed to enhance biomass solvation in 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium acetate ([C2mim][OAc]). The resulting biomass–IL solution is then cast into free-standing films using different coagulating solvents, yet preserving the polymeric nature of the biomass constituents. Methanol coagulated films exhibit a cocontinuous 3D-network structure with dispersed domains of less than 100 nm. The consolidated films with controllable morphology and structural order demonstrate tensile properties better than those of quasi-isotropic wood. Here, the methods for producing these biomass derivatives have potential for fabricating novel green materials with superior performance from woody and grassy biomass.

Integration of acetic acid catalysis with one-pot protic ionic liquid configuration to achieve high-efficient biorefinery of poplar biomass

Journal Article Huang, Kaixuan; Mohan, Mood; George, Anthe; ... - Green Chemistry

Recyclable biocatalysts and high-efficiency lignocellulose deconstruction are the crucial factors for costeffective conversion of biomass into biofuels and bioproducts. Acetic acid-based catalytic hydrolysis of grassy lignocellulosic biomass presents a promising application because of its effectivity, recyclability, and other environmentally friendly features. However, this treatment is not as effective on woody biomass, such as poplar. One way to improve conversion performance of this process is to integrate it with other effective processes, such as pretreating biomass with protic ionic liquids (PILs) that have been shown to effectively solubilize lignin in reducing the recalcitrance of biomass to enzymatic deconstruction.

A fundamental understanding of whole biomass dissolution in ionic liquid for regeneration of fiber by solution-spinning

Journal Article Nguyen, Ngoc; Kim, Keonhee; Bowland, Christopher; ... - Green Chemistry

Materials made from renewable resources are interesting and attractive substitutes for petroleum-based materials. Recently, regeneration of cellulose fibers using ionic liquids (ILs) as green solvents has been a topic of interest to both industrial and academic sectors. However, extraction of cellulose from lignocellulosic biomass requires numerous energy intensive processing steps. Additionally, the deconstruction and removal of lignin and hemicellulose components from lignocellulosic biomass usually involve corrosive pretreatment and the solvation of specific biomass components. Instead, utilization of the whole biomass—particularly woody residues—to manufacture high-performance materials offers an attractive value-proposition. In this study, we demonstrated fiber regeneration of whole hybrid poplarmore »« less

Overcoming cellulose recalcitrance in woody biomass for the lignin-first biorefinery

Journal Article Yang, Haibing; Zhang, Ximing; Luo, Hao; ... - Biotechnology for Biofuels

Low-temperature swelling of cotton linter cellulose and subsequent gelatinization in trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) greatly enhance rates of enzymatic digestion or maleic acid-AlCl₃ catalyzed conversion to hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and levulinic acid (LA). However, lignin inhibits low-temperature swelling of TFA-treated intact wood particles from hybrid poplar (Populus tremula x P. alba) and results in greatly reduced yields of glucose or catalytic conversion compared to lignin-free cellulose. Previous studies have established that wood particles from transgenic lines of hybrid poplar with high syringyl (S) lignin content give greater glucose yields following enzymatic digestion. Low-temperature (-20 degrees C) treatment of S-lignin-rich poplar wood particlesmore »« less

Relationship between lignocellulosic biomass dissolution and physicochemical properties of ionic liquids composed of 3-methylimidazolium cations and carboxylate anions

Journal Article Moyer, Preenaa; Smith, Micholas; Abdoulmoumine, Nourredine; ... - Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics. PCCP

The ionic liquid (IL) 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([EMIM]Acetate) has been widely used for biomass processing, i.e., to pretreat, activate, or fractionate lignocellulosic biomass to produce soluble sugars and lignin. However, this IL does not achieve high biomass solubility, therefore minimizing the efficiency of biomass processing. In this paper, [EMIM]Acetate and three other ILs composed of different 3-methylimidazolium cations and carboxylate anions ([EMIM]Formate, 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium ([AMIM]) formate, and [AMIM]Acetate) were analyzed to relate their physicochemical properties to their biomass solubility performance. While all four ILs are able to dissolve hybrid poplar under fairly mild process conditions (80 °C and 100 RPM stirring), [AMIM]Formatemore »« less

Deconstruction of Woody Biomass via Protic and Aprotic Ionic Liquid Pretreatment for Ethanol Production

Journal Article Das, Lalitendu; Achinivu, Ezinne; Barcelos, Carolina; ... - ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering

Ionic liquids (ILs) have emerged as important solvents for conversion of lignocellulosic feedstocks to fuels and chemicals due to their ability to enable efficient biomass deconstruction and fractionation. Woody biomass derived from forest and agricultural residues has the potential to be used for production of biofuels and its removal from forests can help mitigate disastrous wildfires in fire-prone states like California. This study evaluated woody biomass types (pine, almond, walnut, and fir) from California as potential biofuel feedstocks. The feedstocks were pretreated with the ILs cholinium lysinate ([Ch][Lys]) and ethanolamine acetate ([EOA][OAc]), followed by enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation of lignocellulosicmore »« less
