Mixed Cu-Mn Oxide Catalysts for Solvolysis of Technical Lignin.

With the rising demand for fuel and the societal shift toward sustainable resources, lignin emerges as a prime feedstock. Lignin is mainly composed of aromatic compounds linked within a complex matrix and holds significant potential as a source of renewable aromatics. Technical lignin, the most abundant form of lignin, is often degraded due to harsh biomass pretreatment processes.
