Valorization of Lignocellulosic Waste (Crotalaria juncea) Using Alkaline Peroxide Pretreatment under Different Process Conditions: An Optimization Study on Separation of Lignin, Cellulose, and Hemicellulose

Valorization of Lignocellulosic Waste (Crotalaria juncea) Using Alkaline Peroxide Pretreatment under Different Process Conditions: An Optimization Study on Separation of Lignin, Cellulose, and Hemicellulose

Lignocellulose materials, essentially consisting of lignin, cellulose and hemicelluloses, are abundant sources of fermentable sugars. The bast fiber of Crotalaria juncea (Sunn hemp), a native cover crop of India, was used as feedstock for this study. The primary objective of this study was to add va...
