This book presents the chemical properties of lignocellulosic
fibers, knowledge of which is essential for innovation and
sustainable development of their transformation. Thermochemical
transformation of wood and other lignocellulosics is presented to
highlight its volatile, liquid and solid products and their novel
applications. Forest biorefinery is described to emphasize the new
products from lignocellulosic constituents, both structural
(cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignins) and those extraneous to
cell walls-extractives. New developments in cellulose technology
related to nanocellulose are discussed in relation to new
applications. Industrial lignins are presented in detail, both in
terms of extraction procedures from spent liquors and structural
characterization of the isolated lignins. Application of
lignocellulosic biopolymers in new composite materials, or in
biomaterials for medicinal purposes, and in solid wood
preservation, are described. The example of an industrial
biorefinery installed in southwestern France more than 40 years ago
is presented.
