 The rising climate change concerns over the excessive exploitation of non-renewable sources have necessitated the need for alternative renewable and eco-friendly resources for the production of innovative materials, achieving the targets of bioeconomy. Lignocellulosic biomass, LB, constituted by polymeric sugars and lignin is an abundantly available plant-based renewable material, in the form of agro-industrial food waste and crop residues that can be exploited, for the production of an array of value-added chemicals and bioproducts. Cellulose is the most abundant natural and biodegradable organic polymer on earth derived from LB, with wide-scale applications in the lignocellulosic bio refineries and food industries. The negative effects of food waste from agro-industrial activities could be reduced through the recovery of cellulose from these wastes, and converting it into valuable forms. However, the extraction of cellulose from LB is a difficult task owing to the recalcitrant nature of biomass, that restricts the easy accessibility of cellulose for value addition. Therefore, a suitable cell. This article was authored by Parashinar Gautra, Vishal Sharma, Meiling Tsai, and others. We are article.tv, links in the description below.
