The reductive catalytic fractionation of flax shives in the presence of bimetallic NiRu catalysts supported on oxidized carbon materials (CM) such as mesoporous Sibunit and carbon mesostructured by KAIST (CMK-3) was studied. The catalysts based on CMK-3 were characterized by a higher surface area (1216 m/g) compared to the ones based on Sibunit (315 m/g). The catalyst supported on CMK-3 (10Ni3RuC400) was characterized by a more uniform distribution of Ni particles, in contrast to the Sibunit-based catalyst (10Ni3RuS450), on the surface of which large agglomerated particles (300-400 nm) were presented.

A new method for extractive-catalytic fractionation of aspen wood to produce microcrystalline (MCC), microfibrillated (MFC), nanofibrilllated (NFC) celluloses, xylan, and ethanollignin is suggested in order to utilize all of the main components of wood biomass. Xylan is obtained with a yield of 10.2 wt.

Water-soluble azo derivatives of lignin were synthesized by the azo coupling reaction using organosolv ethanol lignin and diazonium salts based on sulfanilic acid and p-nitroaniline. The structure of azo derivatives of lignin were studied by nuclear magnetic resonance, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and gel permeation chromatography. It was found that the azobenzene bonds formed in the azo coupling reaction of macromolecules impart the photosensitive properties to the synthesized polymers via cis-trans photoisomerization of the diazobenzene group.

Arabinogalactan depolymerization over solid Zr-containing SBA-15-based catalyst was studied via HPLC, GPC, and theoretical modeling. Arabinogalactans (AG) are hemicelluloses mainly present in larch wood species, which can be extracted on an industrial scale. The application of solid acid catalysts in the processes of hemicellulose conversion can exclude serious drawbacks such as equipment corrosion, etc.
