Catalytic Lignin Valorization Process for the Production of Aromatic Chemicals and Hydrogen

With dwindling reserves of fossil feedstock as a resource for chemicals production, the fraction of chemicals and energy supplied by alternative, renewable resources, such as lignin, can be expected to increase in the foreseeable future. Here, we demonstrate a catalytic process to valorize lignin (e...
