Pretreatment with efficient fractionation, eco-friendliness, and low-cost brings high security to future biorefinery systems. Synergistic pretreatment is a compelling blueprint to tackle the compact structure of lignocellulose towards a high-level valorization. Here, a stepwise approach was designed using hydrothermal and deep eutectic solvent (DES) pretreatments to hierarchically extract hemicelluloses and lignin from poplar, while delivering a cellulose-rich substrate that could easily undergo enzymatic hydrolysis to obtain fermentable glucose and residual lignin. The lifetime of recyclable DES showed that the pretreatment efficiency was still largely maintained after the fourth recycling. An enhancement of enzymatic digestibility from 13.9 to 90.4 % was initiated by the deconstruction of amorphous portions and robust cell wall. 23.7 % Xylooligosaccharides (degree of polymerization 2-6), 47.5 % DES-isolated lignin, and 19.2 % cellulose enzymatic lignin were harvested via this coupled process. This study could promote the precise design of sustainable tandem pretreatment that can boost the frontier of highly available biorefinery.

An optimized microwave-assisted low methoxyl pectin extraction procedure was described. Six task specific deep eutectic solvents (TDES) were used in the extraction of pectin from bilimbi (LMABP) and pomelo peels (LMCGP). Response surface methodology-based optimization of the parameters like feed-to-solvent ratio, extraction time, and microwave power level results in 72.

The current research focused on extraction optimization of bioactive compounds from Strychnos potatorum seeds (SPs) using an eco-friendly glycerol-sodium acetate based deep eutectic solvent (DES). The optimization was accomplished using response surface methodology (RSM) and artificial neural networking (ANN). The independent variables included shaking time (A), temperature (B), and solvent-to-feed ratio (C), and the responses were the extraction yield, total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), antioxidant activity (DPPH), and antidiabetic activity (α-amylase inhibitory activity).

The electrooxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) has been deeply investigated. However, developing a durable electrocatalyst for fast production of FDCA at low potentials remains a challenge. Herein, we report NiP-NiSe heterostructure nanosheet arrays as efficient electrocatalysts for HMF electrooxidation.
