“…It was reported that their mechanical properties confer them a great potential for applications such as barrier film formation for sustainable food packaging or biocompatible hydrogel production as cells carrier in biomedicine. 20,21 Biological properties have also been published such as anti-cosmetic applications. [22][23][24] A sustainable and economic sourcing of LCC is critical to ensure their industrial development.…”

The development of zero waste biorefineries is a promising yet challenging pathway towards a sustainable bioeconomy. Deep insights on the composition of biorefineries side streams along with the development of green technologies are mandatory to achieve such goal. In this paper, a sustainable pilote scale membrane process was used to recover valuable organic matter dissolved in the main side stream of a thermomechanical pulping (TMP) plant. A great number of analytical tools were combined to get an extensive characterisation of the generated fraction, including ICP-AES, HPIC-PAD, FTIR, SEC, 13

“…Thereby, the non-cellulosic polysaccharides affect cell wall architecture, wood traits, and properties of lignocellulosic biomass being favorite targets for improving biomass properties (reviewed in Tavares et al, 2015 ; Damm et al, 2016 ; Marriott et al, 2016 ; Wang et al, 2016 ; Smith et al, 2017 ). They are also a precious source of large amounts of assimilated carbon for which clever applications are being sought (e.g., Zhao et al, 2015 ; Oinonen et al, 2016 ).…”

Non-cellulosic polysaccharides constitute approximately one third of usable woody biomass for human exploitation. In contrast to cellulose, these substances are composed of several different types of unit monosaccharides and their backbones are substituted by various groups. Their structural diversity and recent examples of their modification in transgenic plants and mutants suggest they can be targeted for improving wood-processing properties, thereby facilitating conversion of wood in a biorefinery setting. Critical knowledge on their structure-function relationship is slowly emerging, although our understanding of molecular interactions responsible for observed phenomena is still incomplete. This review: (1) provides an overview of structural features of major non-cellulosic polysaccharides of wood, (2) describes the fate of non-cellulosic polysaccharides during biorefinery processing, (3) shows how the non-cellulosic polysaccharides impact lignocellulose processing focused on yields of either sugars or polymers, and (4) discusses outlooks for the improvement of tree species for biorefinery by modifying the structure of non-cellulosic polysaccharides.

“…117 − 119 This gives hemicelluloses an applicable niche as anchor polymers to engineer the surface of cellulose fibers. 119 − 121 Structurally, hemicellulose contains either pentose or hexose with many free hydroxyl groups, which are easily functionalized by, for example, esterification, etherification, or reductive amination. In our past studies, tuning the surface properties of CNFs (wettability and surface rigidity) using hardwood hemicellulose from spruce, galactoglucomannan (GGM), and its derivatives (GGM- graft- fatty acid, GGM- block -fatty acid, and GGM- block- PDMS) was investigated.…”

Wood-derived biopolymers have attracted great attention over the past few decades due to their abundant and versatile properties. The well-separated three main components, i.e., cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin, are considered significant candidates for replacing and improving on oil-based chemicals and materials. The production of nanocellulose from wood pulp opens an opportunity for novel material development and applications in nanotechnology. Currently, increased research efforts are focused on developing 3D printing techniques for wood-derived biopolymers for use in emerging application areas, including as biomaterials for various biomedical applications and as novel composite materials for electronics and energy devices. This Review highlights recent work on emerging applications of wood-derived biopolymers and their advanced composites with a specific focus on customized pharmaceutical products and advanced functional biomedical devices prepared via three-dimensional printing. Specifically, various biofabrication strategies in which woody biopolymers are used to fabricate customized drug delivery devices, cartilage implants, tissue engineering scaffolds and items for other biomedical applications are discussed.
