Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of comprehensive utilization of biomass, and particularly relates to a method for pretreating lignocellulose by using a neutral eutectic solvent assisted by Lewis base.
Background
Lignocellulosic biomass such as agricultural and forestry crops and energy crops has the characteristics of being renewable, large in production amount, rich in carbohydrate and the like, and the new energy is fully utilized to be converted into biochemical and biofuel, so that the use of fossil energy can be reduced, and economic value and ecological benefit are brought. The cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin are closely interwoven through hydrogen bonds, covalent bonds and non-covalent bonds to form a complex three-dimensional structure. From the standpoint of conversion utilization of the wood-based feedstock, the structural resistance of the wood-based feedstock can affect the liquid permeability or enzyme accessibility during processing, thereby affecting the conversion cost thereof. Different pretreatment methods are usually required to improve the utilization efficiency, such as physical treatment, thermochemical treatment, biological method, etc. However, the conventional methods have respective disadvantages, which limit the application thereof, such as high cost, long period and low enzymatic saccharification efficiency.
The eutectic solvent (DES) consists of a hydrogen bond donor and a hydrogen bond acceptor, and is a new generation green solvent with no toxicity, good biocompatibility and low cost. More importantly, the DESs can significantly disrupt lignin-carbohydrate complexes (LCCs) and selectively extract hemicellulose and lignin. Among them, neutral DESs using glycerol, ethylene glycol, or the like as a hydrogen bond donor have advantages of low viscosity, high thermal stability, and the like, compared with other DESs, and can be applied on a large scale.
Kim et al (Kim, K.H., dutta, T., et al. Biomass pretreatment using deep electrically soluble sugars from lignin derived phenols, 2018,20 (4), 809-815.) studies showed that pretreatment of lignocellulose with choline chloride/4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol resulted in only 0.4% lignin removal, with enzymatic saccharification efficiencies of only 32.0%. Procences (Procences, A., johnson, E., et al. Deep aqueous solvent pretreatment and sub-queue hydrolysis of corn. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a method for promoting the deconstruction of lignocellulose by a neutral eutectic solvent.
