Semi-mechanistic modelling of ionic liquid-based biomass fractionation
Abstract
Fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass is a crucial step to provide cellulose, lignin, and hemicellulose for further processing. This work focuses on modelling the fractionation of woody biomass using the ionoSolv process, which employs low-cost ionic liquid water mixtures. We model a simple reaction network to describe the solvent-extraction of three main biopolymers from solid lignocellulosic biomass. We estimate the corresponding kinetic …
