Economic analysis of a biorefinery process for catechol production from lignin

Recently, the valorization of the lignin fraction in the biorefinery scheme is getting more and more attention as the use of this component for the production of bio-based chemicals is crucial for the success of the integral development of lignocellulosic biorefinery processes. The present work incl...
