Bamboo, a member of the grass family, is fast growing and high yielding renewable resource. The popularity bamboo has risen in recent times owing to its multifaceted myriad practical applications. There are unlimited uses bamboo, therefore proper utilization this beneficial resource will be useful industrial sector. This review provides comprehensive summary regarding potential as vital non-wood fibrous raw material for pulp, paper other allied industries ability conserve forests foster...
Cationic cellulose stands out as a versatile and commercially important derivative of cellulose, known for its superior reactivity functional properties. The present study demonstrates the optimal utilization management bagasse waste through cationic synthesis. It primarily focuses on development an optimized efficient etherification strategy synthesis by systematically evaluating three distinct approaches, which could serve breakthrough selection best suitable media various industrial...
Cleaner production of sugars and pulp from renewable feedstocks has captured significant scientific attention in the recent past because they can be used for various end applications. In papermaking industry, a major fraction hemicellulosic is lost during pulping. The present study aims at retrieving these through alkali-, hot-water-, acid-mediated extraction prior to pulping, which otherwise would have been pulping washing pulp. These retrieved as energy value-added products. Different...
The abundantly available waste banana pseudostem fibers have attracted the paper and textile industries, however stem-sap extracted during fiber processing remains underutilized. Although this sap comprising cellulosic sugars holds potential as a feedstock, its commercial viability in renewable energy sector challenge. Our study delves into untapped resource by mechanically extracting from pseudostems enhancing reducing sugar content to approximately 35.5 g/L through acid hydrolysis...
