| Zusammenfassung: | Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. Each year millions of tons of agricultural wastes are produced, however, not well utilized in China. Considering the economic development and environmental protection, the valorization of these wastes is increasingly necessary and important. Here we used p-toluenesulfonic acid hydrolysis followed by mild disk grinding for on-farm valorization of wheat straw (WS) and their pulping solid residue (waste wheat straw, WWS) to produce lignocellulosic nanofibrils (LCNF). Alkaline peroxide post-treatment was further conducted to obtain purified lignocellulosic nanofibrils (P-LCNF) with lower lignin content and thinner diameters. The raw materials and resulting LCNF and P-LCNF were investigated in each process for their chemical component, crystal structure, morphology, and thermal properties. Interestingly, although WS fiber had higher lignin content than WWS fiber, the WS fiber with lower ash content resulted in LCNF and P-LCNF with smaller height and lower thermal stability, but higher crystallinity and higher specific surface area. Higher ash content in WWS fiber protected cellulose and lignin from depolymerization and degradation, respectively, which endowed LCNF and P-LCNF with entangled network structure. Overall, this study indicated that the low-temperature fractionation process on WS and WWS fibers could yield cellulose nanomaterials with potential value-added application and achieve the efficient utilization of agricultural wastes |
