The effects of ultrasonic waves and temperature on the extraction of lignin from rice straw in the presence of KOH

The effects of ultrasonic waves and solution temperature on the extraction of lignin from rice straw (Oryzae sativa) in the presence of 1M KOH were studied for this experiment. Lignin is a component in rice straw that hinders the conversion of cellulose to sugars. These sugars could then used to con...
