  • Membrane filtration of alkali-depolymerised kraft lignin for biological conversion
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Bioresource Technology Reports. - : Elsevier BV. - 2589-014X. ; 7
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • In this study, we have investigated the possibility of membrane filtration as a means for obtaining a fraction containing mainly low-molecular-weight (LMW) compounds from depolymerised lignin (DL) for subsequent microbial conversion. A DL stream from continuous-mode alkali depolymerisation of a softwood kraft lignin produced at a temperature of 220 °C and a residence time of 2 min, using a NaOH/lignin weight ratio of 1 with 5 wt% lignin loading was fractionated using a polymeric membrane with a molecular weight cut-off of 500–700 Da. The permeate (DLP) volume recovery of LMW phenolics (250–450 Da) was 70% after filtration for 3.7 h. The DLP was used as a carbon source for growth of three bacterial strains; Pseudomonas fluorescens, P. putida EM42 and Rhodococcus opacus, and good growth was obtained by the first two microorganisms. This proof-of-concept study demonstrates a novel strategy for technical lignin valorisation by combining depolymerisation, nanofiltration and bioconversion.

  • Oxidative Depolymerisation of Lignosulphonate Lignin into Low-Molecular-Weight Products with Cu–Mn/δ-Al2O3
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Topics in Catalysis. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1022-5528 .- 1572-9028. ; 62, s. 639-648

    • Lignin depolymerisation receives great attention due to the pressing need to find sustainable alternatives to fossil sources for production of fuels and chemicals. In this study, alumina-supported Cu–Mn and Ni–Mo catalysts were tested for oxidative depolymerisation of a technical lignin stream—sodium lignosulphonates—to produce valuable low-molecular-weight aromatics that may be considered for applications in the fuels and chemicals sector. The reactions were performed at elevated temperature and oxygen pressure, and the product mixtures were analysed by size exclusion chromatography, two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and supercritical fluid chromatography mass spectrometry. The best performance was obtained with Cu–Mn/δ-Al 2 O 3 , which was thoroughly characterised before and after use by nitrogen physisorption, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, thermal gravimetric analysis, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Major products identified were vanillin, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, vanillic acid and p-hydroxybenzoic acid as well as smaller aliphatic aldehydes, acids and lactones.

  • Oxidative Depolymerization of Kraft Lignin for Microbial Conversion
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: ACS Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering. - : American Chemical Society (ACS). - 2168-0485. ; 7:13, s. 11640-11652

    • The valorization of lignin is being increasingly recognized as crucial to improve the economic viability of integrated biorefineries. Because of its inherent heterogeneity and recalcitrance, lignin has been treated as a waste product in the pulp and paper industry, but new technologies are now being explored to transform lignin into a sustainable resource and enhance its value chain. In the present study, alkaline oxidative depolymerization was investigated as a potential form of pretreatment to enable further biological conversion of LignoBoost kraft lignin (LB). LB lignin oxidation reactions were studied at various temperatures (120-200 °C) and O2 partial pressures (3-15 bar) to identify the optimal conditions for obtaining a biocompatible, oxidatively depolymerized lignin (ODLB) stream. The low molecular weight compounds resulting from this treatment consisted mainly of aromatic monomers and carboxylic acids. The highest yield of aromatic monomers, 3 wt %, was obtained at 160 °C and 3 bar O2. The yield of carboxylic acids increased with both increasing temperature and O2 pressure, exceeding 13% under the harshest conditions investigated. The growth of four aromatic-catabolizing bacterial strains was examined on reaction product mixtures, all of which showed growth on agar plates utilizing ODLB as the sole source of carbon and energy. Rhodococcus opacus and Sphingobium sp. SYK-6 were found to consume most of the aromatic monomers present in the ODLB (e.g., vanillin, vanillate, acetovanillone, and guaiacol). The findings of this study indicate that pretreatment by oxidative depolymerization has potential in the biological valorization of technical lignin streams, for the production of valuable chemicals and materials.

  • Green solvents-based fractionation process for kraft lignin with controlled dispersity and molecular weight
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Bioresource Technology. - : Elsevier BV. - 0960-8524. ; 291
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The aim of this work is to develop a novel green solvent based sustainable process to refine lignin into low molecular weight (LMW) and high molecular weight (HMW) fractions. Lignin dispersity reduction were experimentally determined using four solvent mixtures, and benchmarked against eight pure solvents. Data outputs were used for modelling the integrated fractionation process. Dispersity reduction of up to 73% was achieved for the high value LMW fraction. Also, a 90% reduction of energy requirement was achieved with an optimized process incorporating a mechanical vapor compression system. This study showed that solvent mixtures involving water can significantly reduce the cost, environment, health and safety impacts of lignin fractionation. Techno-economic evaluation confirmed the economic viability of a large-scale process processing 50 tonne/day of lignin.

  • Bacterial conversion of depolymerized Kraft lignin
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Biotechnology for Biofuels. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1754-6834. ; 12
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BackgroundLignin is a potential feedstock for microbial conversion into various chemicals. However, the microbial degradation rate of native or technical lignin is low, and chemical depolymerization is needed to obtain reasonable conversion rates. In the current study, nine bacterial strains belonging to the Pseudomonas and Rhodococcus genera were evaluated for their ability to grow on alkaline-treated softwood lignin as a sole carbon source.ResultsPseudomonas fluorescens DSM 50090 and Rhodococcus opacus DSM1069 showed the best growth of the tested species on plates with lignin. Further evaluation of P. fluorescens and R. opacus was made in liquid cultivations with depolymerized softwood Kraft lignin (DL) at a concentration of 1 g/L. Size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) showed that R. opacus consumed most of the available lower-molecular weight compounds (approximately 0.1–0.4 kDa) in the DL, but the weight distribution of larger fractions was almost unaffected. Importantly, the consumed compounds included guaiacol—one of the main monomers in the DL. SEC analysis of P. fluorescens culture broth, in contrast, did not show a large conversion of low-molecular weight compounds, and guaiacol remained unconsumed. However, a significant shift in molecular weight distribution towards lower average weights was seen after cultivation with P. fluorescens.ConclusionsRhodococcus opacus and P. fluorescens were identified as two potential microbial candidates for the conversion/consumption of base-catalyzed depolymerized lignin, acting on low- and high-molecular weight lignin fragments, respectively. These findings will be of relevance for designing bioconversion of softwood Kraft lignin.
