Vanillin production from lignin: Rigorous process simulation results for ethyl acetate versus aliphatic-alcohol-specific process designs
Energy hotspots for the production of vanillin from Kraft lignin are identified and process improvements are proposed and rigorously simulated. The hotspots identified and addressed are related to the flowrate of methanol used as solvent and recycled in the process. Several alternative process desig...
