Pine oleoresin: tapping green chemicals, biofuels, food protection, and carbon sequestration from multipurpose trees

Abstract

Plants of the genus Pinus are able to grow in a wide range of environments, many of which are quite harsh and extreme. High benefit–cost ratio of pine plantations resides on the relatively low demand for management investments and high economic and environmental services returns. Pine forests work as sinks of atmospheric carbon, contributing to greenhouse effect mitigation. They are important sources of numerous useful products, including not only wood and cellulose but also nonwood products used by the chemical, food, and pharmaceutical industries, as well as for biorefineries. This review examines biological and economic aspects of pine trees concerning the chemical industry, especially the contributions of this natural source for replacing petroleum‐derived chemicals and fuels, improving food safety, and increasing carbon storage. Future goals for this forestry sector, such as the establishment of super‐resinous forests, are also discussed.

Determination of Terpenoid Content in Pine by Organic Solvent Extraction and Fast-GC Analysis

“…For example, pine oleoresin is used to generate turpentine, a solvent and source of synthetic platform chemicals such as α-pinene (Palmer, 1943;Beglinger, 1958). Terpenoids, naturally occurring organic compounds derived from isoprene units, are the primary constituents of pine oleoresin (Palmer, 1943;Bohlmann and Keeling, 2008;Rodrigues-Corrêa et al, 2012). Monoterpenes (C10), sesquiterpenes (C15), and diterpenoid resin acids (C20), the main terpenoids found in pine oleoresin, are a Abbreviations: BSTFA, N,O-Bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide; GC/FID, gas chromatography/flame ionization detector; LTM MACH, low thermal mass modular accelerated column heater; PLW, pine lighter wood; PS, pine sapling; py-MBMS, pyrolysis-molecular beam mass spectrometry.…”

“…valuable source of chemicals with many industrial applications (Beglinger, 1958;Martin et al, 2002;Monteiro and Veloso, 2004;Bohlmann and Keeling, 2008;Harvey et al, 2009; RodriguesCorrêa et al, 2012). Turpentine is composed of monoterpenes and is used in the flavor and fragrance industry (Bohlmann and Keeling, 2008;Rodrigues-Corrêa et al, 2012). Other uses for terpenoid compounds have been found in pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and polymer industries (Beglinger, 1958;Bohlmann and Keeling, 2008;Rodrigues-Corrêa et al, 2012).…”

Monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes have also been investigated as potential sources of renewable fuel (Monteiro and Veloso, 2004;Harvey et al, 2009;Peralta-Yahya et al, 2011;Renninger et al, 2011;Meylemans et al, 2012;Rodrigues-Corrêa et al, 2012;Hellier et al, 2013;Vallinayagam et al, 2014). Efforts have been made to understand the genetic, ecological, and physicochemical processes behind the production and accumulation of terpenoids in pine and other feedstocks (Nerg et al, 1994;Manninen et al, 2002;Martin et al, 2002;Bojovic et al, 2005;Schmidt et al, 2011;Achotegui-Castells et al, 2013;Susaeta et al, 2014).…”

Studi Penyadapan Getah Pinus Cara Bor Dengan Stimulan H2so4

“…3, September 2017: 221-230 swasta dan BUMN juga telah melakukan pengelolaan hutan pinus untuk memproduksi getah, misalnya di Sulawesi dengan areal hutan pinus 130.000 ha dan di Sumatera 335.000 ha (Santosa, 2010). Belakangan ini, dalam pelaksanaan penyadapan getah pinus secara komersial dilakukan dengan cara melukai kulit batang dan jaringan di bawahnya yang disertai dengan atau tanpa penggunaan stimulan kimia (Rodrigues-Corrêa, Lima, & FettNeto, 2017). Dalam kegiatan pemanenan getah pinus di Indonesia telah dicoba beberapa cara penyadapan, antara lain cara koakan (quarre), cara kopral (riil) dan cara bor dengan menggunakan atau tanpa menggunakan stimulan (cairan perangsang).…”
