Functional deep eutectic solvent for lignocellulose valorization <i>via</i> lignin stabilization and cellulose functionalization

Abstract

The pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass with a functional DES that incorporates choline chloride (ChCl) and glyoxylic acid (GA) resulted in a high removal of lignin and hemicellulose, lignin stabilization, and cellulose functionalization.
