Method for recovering and using lignin in adhesive resins by extracting demethylated lignin
This patent describes a method for extracting demethylated lignin from demethylated lignin-containing aqueous solution. It comprises mixing the demethylated lignin-containing aqueous solution with a polar, partially water immiscible organic solvent to form a demethylated lignin-containing aqueous solution/organic solvent mixture; allowing the demethylated lignin-containing aqueous solution/organic solvent mixture to form at least two phases wherein at least one of the at least two phases is an aqueous phase and at least one of the at least two phases is an organic solvent phase which contains at least a portion of the demethylated lignin which was contained in the demethylated lignin-containing aqueous solution; separating the aqueous phase from the organic solvent phase; and recovering the demethylated lignin contained in the organic solvent phase.
