1. Investigation of Milled Wood Lignin Extraction Using Enzymatic Hydrolysis for Application in Hydrophobic Barriers in the Food Packaging Industry
University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Abstract : The objective of this report is twofold: to optimise the extraction method of lignin from spruce altering a few process parameters and to investigate the use of lignin as a hydrophobic barrier in food applications. The process used was STEX (steam explosion) pretreatment followed by enzymatic hydrolysis and MWL (milled wood lignin) extraction using a mixture of dioxane-water. READ MORE

2. A Study on Lignin or Zein Based Hydrophobic Coatings
University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Abstract : The two by-products lignin, from the paper industry, and zein, from starch production, have shown potential as hydrophobic barriers. Therefore, this study has aimed to produce and in-vestigate the hydrophobicity of lignin or zein dispersions coated on paper. READ MORE
