In situ amino–lignin production via biomass fractionation for high-efficacy CO2 capture
DOI: 10.1039/D5GC00429B, Paper


One-pot reactive fractionation of biomasses using an aniline–formic acid solvent system produces high-purity cellulose and high-N-density aminated lignins. The obtained aminated lignin can serve as a valuable precursor for carbon capture.
