Download or read book Lignin and Lignans as Renewable Raw Materials written by Francisco G. Calvo-Flores and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As naturally occurring and abundant sources of non-fossil carbon, lignin and lignans offer exciting possibilities as a source of commercially valuable products, moving away from petrochemical-based feedstocks in favour of renewable raw materials. Lignin can be used directly in fields such as agriculture, livestock, soil rehabilitation, bioremediation and the polymer industry, or it can be chemically modified for the fabrication of specialty and high-value chemicals such as resins, adhesives, fuels and greases. Lignin and Lignans as Renewable Raw Materials presents a multidisciplinary overview of the state-of-the-art and future prospects of lignin and lignans. The book discusses the origin, structure, function and applications of both types of compounds, describing the main resources and values of these products as carbon raw materials. Topics covered include: • Structure and physicochemical properties • Lignin detection methods • Biosynthesis of lignin • Isolation methods • Characterization and modification of lignins • Applications of modified and unmodified lignins • Lignans: structure, chemical and biological properties • Future perspectives This book is a comprehensive resource for researchers, scientists and engineers in academia and industry working on new possibilities for the application of renewable raw materials.

Download or read book Ecology of Humic Substances in Freshwaters written by Christian Steinberg and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humic Substances color all waters more or less brown. Their concentrations exceed all carbon of living organisms by at least one order of magnitude. Opposite to former paradigms, they participate in almost any metabolic pathway. They protect against UV-irradation, enable indirect photolysis and, thus, purify hazardous chemicals, they provide inorganic and organic nutrients, may form cryptic genes with DNA and dampen metabolic fluctuations. More recently they can increase adverse effects of hazardous chemicals and they can directly interfere with organisms. The book tries to relate effects to structural features.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses different recent advanced aspects of lignin and its applications, with the main recent progress in this field being reviewed and presented. Several different approaches to lignin and new ideas about its utilization are exposed in the book chapters. Technology, and the science behind the technology, of lignin are the main focus of the volume, with perhaps a less classical approach than other lignin volumes. The book will be of particular use to application researchers and technicians in lignin applications and in biorefinery derivates and their uses. The emphasis is always on a “green” materials approach throughout the various lignin application fields tackled.
