Fractionation and purification of lignin fraction in a bio-refinery: Membrane-approaches as an economic and environmental alternative to classic separation techniques KU Leuven
Producing biobased chemicals and substituting energy-intensive separation processes are integral parts of a sustainable chemical industry. However, the downstream separation and purification of lignin-based aromatic biochemicals are challenging. Therefore, this research explores the benefits that organic solvent nanofiltration can bring to the downstream separation process of these aromatic compounds.
Different nanofiltration ...
