Fractionation of Lignocellulosic Residues Coupling Steam Explosion and Organosolv Treatments Using Green Solvent γ-Valerolactone

A two-step fractionation of lignocellulosic residues of Phragmites australis in its main components (cellulose-pulp, soluble hemicellulose sugars, and lignin) is described, based on the biomass-derived solvent γ-valerolactone (GVL). The solvent used is an excellent substitute for traditional organic...
