Valorization of agriculture biomass for high-value bioproducts

Agricultural biomass (such as wheat, flax, hemp straw, cereal straws) could be a low-cost feedstock for the production of valuable bioproducts. This will require fractionation of different components of biomass and the conversion of the fractionated components into various bioproducts. The intern will work on optimizing the fractionation process and characterization of bioproducts with an aim to develop application for cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin.
