Lignin is the big barrier for pretreatment and enzyme hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass. The idea to use ionic liquids is to decrystallize of the cellulose to make it more digestible for enzymes.
If we can use lignin solvent like dioxine to break down lignin linkages, it may significantly increase the enyzme digestability and reduce enzyme loadings during enzyme hydrolysis.
