In the last decades, integrated biorefineries are acquiring importance since they allow the integral valorisation of lignocellulosic biomass by the obtaining of multiple products. However, the high number of steps of these biorefineries could reduce their economic sustainability and also could worse their environmental profile. In this sense, biphasic reaction systems could be a solution since it permits the production and isolation of added-value compounds in a single step. Furthermore, carrying reactions in biphasic systems also presents some advantages compared with performing them in monophasic systems, as they can be thermodynamically controlled and side reactions are avoided. Thus, this short review briefly presents the different biphasic reaction systems proposed in the last two years for the valorisation of lignocellulosic biomass.

Among lignocellulosic materials, chestnut shells (CNS) are a rejected feedstock from agro-food industry with promising possibilities as a suitable raw material to be used in a biorefinery scheme. The aim of this work was to optimize the alkaline delignification of CNS for the co-production of lignin and bio-ethanol. Under the optimal conditions (7.2% NaOH, 80 °C and 30 min), 92.6% of delignification was achieved, and 60.5% of glucan was recovered. This delignified solid was subjected to a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation using Saccharomyces cerevisiae, reaching an ethanol production of 14.6 g/L (ethanol conversion of 97%). Furthermore, the lignin extracted from CNS was characterized for the first time in terms of the chemical composition (pyrolysis-GC/MS), molecular weight distribution (HPSEC), thermal stability (TGA), structural properties and functional groups (FTIR and NMR) and total phenolic content (Folin-Ciocalteu). A preliminary economic analysis demonstrated that the co-production of lignin is the key factor in the profitability of the CNS biorefinery, and that alkaline delignification could be a suitable revalorization strategy of this unexploited residue.

The use of vine shoots as feedstock in biorefining activities to obtain bioproducts under efficient and optimized conditions could be crucial to make future high added value compounds and processes more sustainable. In this study, five different potential valorization scenarios from vine shoots differing on diverse extraction and delignification steps were assessed from an environmental perspective using the Life Cycle Assessment methodology to identify the most sustainable biorefining route. The main findings from this study reported that an increment on the number of valorization steps involved higher energy and chemical requirements deriving on worse environmental profiles. Scenarios incorporating fermentation of the glucose liquors or organosolv delignification performed the worst profiles. Autohydrolysis, concentration and freeze drying and enzymatic hydrolysis were the main responsible stages of the environmental burdens. Further research should be focused on optimizing chemicals and electricity requirements to develop greener systems.

Hemicelluloses are the second most abundant heterogeneous polysaccharides in nature. Among the several treatments that can be used for the solubilization of hemicelluloses to produce oligosaccharides from lignocellulosic biomass, the autohydrolysis reaction is the most widely used. Under suitable conditions, autohydrolysis enables high ligosaccharides yields, however this reaction is not selective and undesired compounds are also present in the reaction media. Because of this, the autohydrolysis media has to be subjected to further processing to improve the purity of oligosaccharide hydrolysate. The chemical and structural characterization of the solubilized products from hemicelluloses is an important aspect as it allows to know the application for which they are more suitable. Oligosaccharides from hemicelluloses can find applications in several fields such as biomedical, food, and biomaterials.
