According to scientific research, the annual global production of lignin is estimated at over 5.36 × 10⁸ tons, making it the second most abundant natural polymer on Earth after cellulose. The remarkable antioxidant properties of lignin are a direct result of its unique and complex polyphenolic structure, which allows it to efficiently neutralize harmful free radicals.

First-generation (1G) bioethanol accounts for over 90% of global ethanol production today, making it a cornerstone of the biofuel industry. This established biofuel is derived from crops containing sugars and starches, utilizing mature and economically viable conversion technologies.
