Sustainable Electrochemical Depolymerization of Lignin in Reusable Ionic Liquids
Abstract Lignin’s aromatic building blocks provide a chemical resource that is, in theory, ideal for substitution of aromatic petrochemicals. Moreover, degradation and valorization of lignin has the potential to generate many high-value chemicals for technical applications. In this study, electroche...
