Abstract:
In this work, lignin depolymerization through both a pyrolysis process and a hydrothermal treatment has been studied with the aim of obtaining phenol-derived monomers that could be useful for improving biodiesel oxidation stability. The GC-MS analyses of the aqueous liquid products of these thermochemical processes proved the presence of phenolic compounds in both liquids. The addition of these liquids to biodiesel led to an oxidation stability improvement of 192 and 45 %, respectively.
