The recycling of biomass into high-value-added materials requires important developments in research and technology to create a sustainable circular economy. Lignin, as component biomass, is multipurpose aromatic polymer with significant potential be used renewable bioresource many fields which it acts both promising biopolymer bioactive compound. This comprehensive review gives brief insights the recent technological trends on lignin development utilization. It divided ten main sections, starting an outlook its diversity; properties possibilities raw material for fuels, chemicals, plastics, or thermoset substitutes; new use compound nanoparticles, hydrogels, 3D-printing-based biomaterials, energy production storage. In each section are presented preparation lignin-based especially green approaches obtaining multifunctional blends bio(nano)composites; most suitable type category envisaged products; obtained materials, etc. Different application categories within various sectors, could provide completely conversion, such agriculture environment protection, food packaging, biomedicine, cosmetics, also described. medical therapeutic lignin-derived evidenced applications antimicrobial, antiviral, antitumor agents; carriers drug delivery systems controlled/targeting release; tissue engineering wound healing; coatings, natural sunscreen, surfactants. Lignin mainly fuel, and, recently, studies highlighted more bioenergy technologies, supercapacitor electrode, photocatalysts, photovoltaics.

Ensuring the longevity of wooden constructions depends heavily on preservation process. However, several traditional methods involving fossil-based compounds have become outdated because they pose a significant risk to environment and human health. Therefore, use bio-based bioactive solutions, such as essential oils, has emerged more sustainable alternative in protecting wood from biotic attacks. The entrapment oils polymeric carrier matrices provides protection against oxidation subsequent degradation or rapid evaporation, which implies loss their biocidal effect. In this work, lignin well PLGA nanoparticles containing two different thyme species (Thymus capitatus T. vulgaris) were applied beech samples using spray coating. prepared coatings investigated FTIR imaging, SEM, LSM analysis. Release experiments conducted investigate release behavior respective materials. study found that effective at trapping retaining than nanoparticles, despite having larger average particle diameters uneven size distribution. An analysis showed formed uniform layer covered most surface pores. film-like cell walls, after leaching, areas native evident treated with NPs compared ones coated NPs. loading capacity efficiency varied type oil, while behaviors similar between oil types study.
