Lignin is an organic polymer that makes plants woody and rigid; after cellulose, it is the most abundant renewable carbon source on Earth. Ordinarily, it is wasted when plant biomass, including cellulose, is converted into biofuels such as ethanol. Hongliang Wang, Hao Ruan, Haisheng Pei, Huamin Wang, Xiaowen Chen, Melvin P.
