Chemical derivatization of galactoglucomannan for functional materials
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2014-11-14)
In the framework of the biorefinery concept researchers aspire to optimize the utilization of plant materials, such as agricultural wastes and wood. For most of the known processes, the first steps in the valorisation of ...
Functionalisation of spruce O-acetyl-galactoglucomannans for barrier and composite applications
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2015-10-23)
The increasing use of energy, food, and materials by the growing population in the world is leading to the situation where alternative solutions from renewable carbon resources are sought after. The growing use of plastics ...
Intensification of hemicellulose hot-water extraction from spruce wood by parameter tuning
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2015-05-22)
The growing population on earth along with diminishing fossil deposits and the climate change debate calls out for a better utilization of renewable, bio-based materials. In a biorefinery perspective, the renewable biomass ...
Pressurized hot water flow-through extraction of birch wood
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2015-03-13)
Effective processes to fractionate the main compounds in biomass, such as wood, are a prerequisite for an effective biorefinery. Water is environmentally friendly and widely used in industry, which makes it a potential ...

Wood-derived biomaterials for biomedical applications
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2016-09-16)
Driven by the global trend in the sustainable economy development and environmental concerns, the exploring of plant-derived biomaterials or biocomposites for potential biomedical and/or pharmaceutical applications has ...
The pH-dependent phase distribution of wood pitch components in papermaking processes
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2013-11-15)
Wood contains only a very small amount of lipophilic extractives, commonly known as wood pitch. The pitch is known to cause severe problems in papermaking processes. The amount of pitch in process waters can be decreased ...
Regioselective modification of galactose-containing polysaccharides in aqueous media
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2013-10-25)
Biorefining is defined as sustainable conversion of biomass into marketable products and energy. Forests cover almost one third of earth’s land area, and account for approximately 40% of the total annual biomass production. ...
Improvement of wet and dry web properties in papermaking by controlling water and fiber quality
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2013-11-08)
The role and corrosivity of lead in recycled wood combustion
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2019-08-30)
