Abstract

This PhD thesis is focused on the development of a methodology for the valorization of different types of lignins, Organosolv (Alcell) and Kraft, by the preparation of porous activated carbons with different textural and surface chemistry properties that allow a large adsorption capacity of emerging pollutants in aqueous phase and a high catalytic activity for alcohols decomposition reactions in gas phase.
