“…This increased commitment can be attributed to the need for climate action, as well as the limited availability of fossil energy and material resources [1]. The bioeconomy can be revolutionized by the abundance of lignin as a component of biomass and its full utilization into valuable bioproducts such as energy storage electrodes, phenolic resins, polyurethane foams, thermoplastics, lignin-based cosmetics, and food [2,3]. As its economy and technology improved, the availability of lignin as a raw material is increasing, favoring the so-called lignocellulose feedstock (LCF) biorefinery due to its sustainability and low cost.…”

“…In a conventional process, the large amount of black liquor is burned to produce energy and many valuable organic compounds are lost. However, this conventional practice is economically and environmentally suboptimal considering that lignin can potentially be used as a sustainable source to produce many valuable substances such as: vanillin, syringaldehyde, dispersing agents, activated carbon, pesticides, fertilizers, thermoplastic polymers, and resins [3,13,14].

Lignin is one of the most abundant bio‐aromatic molecular resources, but it is currently underutilized for energy production in the pulp and paper industry. Unlocking the full potential of lignin could have a significant impact on reducing environmental pollution, increasing the use of renewable resources, and achieving environmentally beneficial economic growth. However, effective lignin valorization requires viable and integrated reaction and separation processes to produce high value monomeric phenolics, such as vanillin and syringaldehyde. The aim of this short review is to summarize the studies on different separation methods of lignin derivatives obtained from black liquor, including extraction, membrane filtration, chromatographic separation, and the combination technologies.

“…Therefore, the manufacturing of plastics consumes a high amount of non-renewable starting materials. Additionally, inadequate disposal of these materials generates plastic pollution, causing extensive financial damage every year. , In this context, sustainable sources, such as chitin, chitosan, cellulose, starch, terpenes, lactic acid, lignin, , and vegetable oils, have been subjects of research in the last years, since they can be used as a feedstock to produce biopolymers, reducing the absolute reliance on crude oil …”

In this work, bio-based composites were prepared by transesterification of different types of lignin with tung oil followed by co-polymerization with divinylbenzene in the presence of pine wood particles. The results obtained reveal that regardless of the source of lignin used, the preparation of the composites was successful, with less than 20 wt % of unreacted material recovered after Soxhlet extraction and no residual curing detected via Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) of the composites showed that the addition of pine wood particles to the co-polymer decreased the overall thermal stability of the materials due to the faster degradation rate of cellulose and hemicelluloses in wood, in comparison to lignin. Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) showed that the glass transition temperature and the storage modulus (E’) of the materials are dependent on the source of lignin employed. The latter, when measured at room temperature, increased with the addition of wood particles, demonstrating their reinforcing effect. Commercial alkali lignin exhibited a 3.5-fold increase in E’ after the addition of wood particles smaller than 150 μm. Finally, water absorption experiments and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images suggest a good interaction between modified lignin and pine wood particles. Overall, the strategy employed for the preparation of lignin-based composites was successful for the different sources of lignin used with final properties being heavily dependent on the specific source employed.
