Abstract

Sugar maple (Acer saccharum) wood chips were pretreated with aqueous sodium hydroxide, sodium borohydride, and hydrogen peroxide pretreatments, and the characterization (i.e., amount, molar masses, and molar mass distributions) of the lignin dissolved during the pretreatments was performed. Of the applied pretreatments, especially borohydride pretreatments were efficient in dissolving lignin from this feedstock, as 20% to 28% of the dissolved organics were found to consist of dissolved lignin, contributing to 3.4% to 9.0% of the initial wood lignin. Corresponding values for 2.5% and 5.0% alkaline peroxide pretreatments were from 5.9% to 9.2% dissolved lignin of the total dissolved organics and from 1.1% to 3.2% of the initial wood lignin. Additionally, determined molar masses and molar mass distributions indicated that borohydride pretreatments generally led to the formation of smaller-molar-mass lignin fragments when compared to reference pretreatments and to pretreatments conducted with alkaline peroxide process, indicating more efficient lignin degradation caused by borohydride addition. For example, Mn and Mw values of the analyzed reference effluents were 54%-62% and 66%-71% higher when compared to the corresponding borohydride effluents, respectively.
