Today, we introduce two new CBE JU-funded projects: #NEXTSTEP and #BIOPYRANIA These projects focus on manufacturing #biobased polymers sustainably and promoting their use in various industries such as #automotive or #household products. 👉 NEXT-STEP will build on the BioCatPolymers project to scale up and demonstrate a #sustainable, safe, and economically viable production process for a new chemical platform with large-scale applications, notably in the bio-based polymer market. More: https://lnkd.in/eWJVFGFm 👉 BIOPYRANIA will develop synthesised bio-based pyrazine monomers via fermentation processes from European second-generation woody biomass.

🚀 Revolutionizing Biocatalysis with Continuous Flow Technology! 🌿🔬 We are thrilled (Ivaldo Itabaiana Jr Robert Wojcieszak) to share our latest breakthrough published in ChemPlusChem journal (Chemistry Europe)! Our research team has successfully harnessed the power of continuous flow technology to immobilize lipase TLL on BM support, achieving remarkable results in the synthesis of hexyl laurate. Key Highlights: ✅ Immobilized lipase TLL on BM support achieved a hydrolytic activity of 504.7 U/g. ✅ Enhanced treatment methods boosted final BM-TLLF hydrolysis activity to 7023 U/g and esterification activity to 430 U/g. ✅ Compared to commercial TLIM, our BM-TLLF showed a 98% conversion rate at 40°C within just 2 hours. ✅ Exceptional recyclability with BM-TLLF maintaining catalytic efficiency over 12 cycles. ✅ Achieved a productivity of 180 mg product/h/U of enzyme, far exceeding the 46 mg/h/U of commercial TLIM. These findings demonstrate the transformative potential of continuous flow technology in biocatalysis, providing a sustainable and efficient pathway for valorizing residual lignocellulosic biomass. 🌱💡 Join us in celebrating this significant advancement towards greener and more efficient chemical processes! https://lnkd.in/dPZaQV7t #ContinuousFlow #Biocatalysis #GreenChemistry #SustainableTech #Innovation #ResearchExcellence #ChemPlusChem #BiomassValorization #ProcessOptimization #LinkedInScience

#Paracetamol could be made from environmentally friendly compounds in future – with poplar trees replacing fossil fuel sources like coal tar and petroleum. 💡 Researchers at Wisconsin-Madison University have developed an efficient method of turning a compound found in tree lignin - called p-hydroxybenzoate (pHB) – into paracetamol. > They say up to 99% of poplar biomass could be turned into the drug – while the process could also be used to make green ‘commodity chemicals’ for producing inks, dyes, textiles and adhesives. > Steven Karlen, who led the research project, said the combined market value of all the products that could be made in this way was around $1.5 billion. 🔬 To support both safer medicines and drug discovery, LGC Mikromol™ provides a huge range of quality pharmaceutical reference standards, while Toronto Research Chemicals offers an extensive research chemicals portfolio.

Excited to share my latest research! I co-authored a review paper titled "Role of Nb₂O₅ Crystal Phases on the Photocatalytic Conversion of Lignin Model Molecules and Selectivity for Value-Added Products," recently published in ChemSusChem. This review explores the impact of different crystal phases of Nb₂O₅ on the photocatalytic conversion of lignin-derived molecules into valuable products. Read the article and learn more about: - The potential of Nb₂O₅ as a sustainable catalyst for lignin valorization. - How crystal phases influence the conversion process and product selectivity. - The implications for developing eco-friendly routes to valuable chemicals from biomass. Link to article: https://lnkd.in/eGPRCHT7 #lignin #biomass #catalysis #sustainability #ChemSusChem I encourage you to share this if you're interested in sustainable chemistry!
