Harnessing Renewable Lignocellulosic Potential for Sustainable Wastewater Purification.

ABSTRACT: Utilizing renewable lignocellulosic resources for wastewater remediation is crucial to achieving sustainable social development. However, the resulting by-products and the synthetic process characterized by complexity, high cost, and environmental pollution limit the further development of lignocellulose-based materials. Here, we developed a sustainable strategy that involved a new functional deep eutectic solvent (DES) to deconstruct industrial xylose residue into cellulose-rich residue with carboxyl groups, lignin with carboxyl and quaternary ammonium salt groups, and DES effluent rich in lignin fragments. Subsequently, these fractions equipped with customized functionality were used to produce efficient wastewater remediation materials in cost-effective and environmentally sound manners
