报告题目：Biorefining of Agricultural Biomass into Sustainable Functional Materials

报告摘要：Agricultural biomass, such as sugarcane bagasse and rice husk, is an abundant, renewable, and low-cost bioresource for producing sustainable fuels and chemicals. However, the commercial viability of biomass valorization is currently limited by high production costs and the relatively low market value of many derived products. Biorefining of agricultural biomass into multiple value-added products, including high-value functional materials, offers a promising strategy to enhance the overall economic feasibility of such processes.

Professor Zhanying Zhang and his research group at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) have previously developed biomass pretreatment and biorefinery technologies for converting agricultural biomass into fermentable cellulosic sugars to produce biofuels and biochemicals. In recent years, the group has focused on the production of sustainable functional materials for high-value applications. In this presentation, Professor Zhang will highlight the research progress of his group in the development of (1) biomass-derived nanomaterials, including nanocellulose, lignin nanoparticles and silica nanoparticles for advanced composites, and the formation and application of Pickering emulsions, and (2) lignin-derived carbon materials for applications in supercapacitors and sodium-ion batteries.
