Abstract
Six novel low transition temperature mixtures were synthesized as two groups of ternary protic (tpLTTM) and binary amphiphilic (aLTTM) mixtures. The thermophysical assessment of these LTTMs was evaluated as a function of temperature. Sustainable delignification for sesame straw and Hansen solubility using kraft lignin was determined as a function of relative energy difference (RED). CLG exhibited lowest RED (0.86) implying elevated lignin affinity (63.2%). Pretreatment kinetics and optimization for lignin removal was defined as a function of time. The samples were observed prior to and after treatment under SEM. The treated biomass (78.3%) was subjected to enzymatic digestion with immobilized cellulase (Cellic CTec2) and fermentation was accomplished with the same (68.3%) to produce bioethanol (81.3%).
