ABSTRACT
A novel ternary deep eutectic solvent (TDES), consisting of zinc chloride, ethylene glycol and alpha hydroxy carboxylic acids (i.e., glycolic acid, citric acid and malic acid), was first proposed to effectively fractionate and convert willow (Salix matsudana cv. Zhuliu) into fermentable sugar. In particular, the zinc chloride/ethylene glycol/malic acid (ZnCl2/EG/MA) TDES system showed remarkable fractionation performance with 91.66 % xylan and 90.12 % lignin removals at 130 °C for 1.5 h, resulting in 96.01 % glucose yield in the subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis stage. Moreover, the regenerated lignin showed regular nanoparticle morphology and good antioxidant properties. Even after four recycling, the TDES showed 70.16 % of delignification and 83.70 % glucose yield with the TDES pretreated willow. Overall, this study demonstrated an effective solvent fractionation approach to maximize the utilization of total lignocellulose under mild conditions.
