ligninpoor
Ligninpoor is a term used to describe biomass with a significantly reduced lignin content compared to typical plant matter. Lignin is a complex polymer that provides structural support to plant cell walls, making them rigid and resistant to degradation. In many industrial applications, such as paper production and biofuel generation, the presence of lignin can be a hindrance, requiring energy-intensive processes to remove or break it down.
Biomass can be considered ligninpoor through various methods. These include genetic modification of plants to produce
Ligninpoor biomass offers several advantages. For example, in papermaking, lower lignin content means less bleaching is
