Complete biodiverse lignocellulosic biomass fractionation process using the green solvent γ-valerolactone
This work shows a mild biomass fractionation process using the green solvent γ-valerolactone. The process produces the biopolymers lignin, hemicellulose and cellulose in high yields and purities from biodiverse starting materials.
