Effect of Simultaneous Steam Explosion and Alkaline Depolymerization on Corncob Lignin and Cellulose Structure

Simultaneous steam explosion and alkaline depolymerization was studied to develop an economic and green process for alkaline pretreatment of lignocellulose. Steam explosion facilitated alkaline delignification and decreased the amount of alkali used during pretreatment. Different amounts of lignin a...
