| Abstract | Lignin offers structural support and protection for plant cell walls; however, it also contributes to biomass recalcitrance and the costs of biofuel production via the biological pathway. Organosolv and ammonia pretreatments have been developed to reduce biomass recalcitrance and improve sugar release performance during enzymatic hydrolysis. It is believed that lignin properties are related to its inhibition on enzymatic hydrolysis; therefore, understanding the characteristics of lignin is a key for effective biomass conversion to biofuels. In this study, an organosolv pretreatment using 60% ethanol with 1.25% H2SO4 significantly deconstructed poplar lignin and reduced its molecular weights due to the cleavage of lignin inter-unit linkages. The organosolv pretreatment increased the contents of phenolic OH units and the lignin residue showed a high cellulase maximum adsorption capacity. Ammonia pretreatment with 5% ammonium hydroxide was not as effective as organosolv pretreatment on lignin deconstruction. Organosolv lignin residue had lower lignin S/G ratio than the untreated one. Compared to the organosolv lignin residue and untreated lignin, ammonia lignin residue had a higher cellulase adsorption affinity. In addition, the effects of lignin on cellulose hydrolysis was investigated and the results suggested that the presence of lignin with cellulose substrates reduced cellulose hydrolysis, and its inhibitory effect was primarily determined by the lignin properties after each pretreatment. The organosolv pretreatment resulted in a slightly lower cellulase binding strength (249.7 mL g−1) on poplar lignin than that on untreated samples (261.1 mL g−1), while ammonia lignin residue showed a higher cellulase binding strength (402.8 mL g−1) and had more significant inhibition effect on cellulose hydrolysis. These results demonstrated that the binding strength significantly affected the lignin-derived inhibition on enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose in the cellulose-lignin mixtures. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
