claimBilba et al. utilized lignin extracted from sugarcane bagasse to reinforce concrete, finding that the incorporation of lignin delayed the setting time of the concrete while enhancing the hydration temperature.
measurementCement composites reinforced with lignin extracted from sugarcane bagasse exhibit thermal stability up to 450 °C, as revealed by DSC studies.
measurementRamlee et al. developed natural fiber composites using sugarcane bagasse (SCB) and oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) fibers, finding that a composite of 70% OPEFB and 30% SCB achieved a tensile strength of 5.56 MPa and a tensile modulus of 661 MPa, while a composite of 30% OPEFB and 70% SCB performed better in water adsorption and swelling experiments.
referenceM. Rastogi and S. Shrivastava assessed indigenous fungal biocatalysts for the valorization of delignified, physico-chemically pretreated corn cobs and sugarcane bagasse, as published in Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining in 2023.
referenceK. Bilba, M.-A. Arsene, and A. Ouensanga studied the influence of botanical components of sugar cane bagasse on the setting of bagasse/cement composites in a 2003 paper published in Cement and Concrete Composites.
referenceRamlee et al. (2019) analyzed the tensile, physical, and morphological properties of hybrid composites reinforced with oil palm empty fruit bunch and sugarcane bagasse fibers.
procedureRastogi et al. developed an enzymatic-based technique for valorizing lignocellulosic biomass into lignin-free polysaccharides using sugarcane bagasse and corn cob as feedstock. The procedure involves: (1) alkali treatment with 2% NaOH for delignification, (2) xylanases enzyme treatment extracted from Aspergillus tubingensis strains, (3) substrate loading at 2% (w/v), (4) enzyme loading at 100–500 U g−1, and (5) incubation at 40 °C, 140 rpm, for 72 hours. The saccharification yield was 81.4%, with greater saccharification observed in the hemicellulose fraction than the cellulose fraction.
referenceQ. B. Thai et al. (2020) developed cellulose-based aerogels derived from sugarcane bagasse for use in oil spill cleaning and heat insulation applications.
claimHeat treatment at 200 °C enables cement composites reinforced with lignin extracted from sugarcane bagasse to exhibit properties similar to regular Portland cement.
