The guest editors of this special issue are from the members of the consortium of the EU Project ‘‘Chemical transformation of enzymatic hydrolysis lignin (EHL) with catalytic solvolysis to fuel commodities under mild conditions (EHLCATHOL)’’. This project is funded by EU (EU-101006744) and involves research groups from AALTO (Finland), LIKAT (Germany), EPFL (Switzerland), NTNU (Norway), LRGP-CNRS (France), TU/E (The Netherlands) and VERTORO (The Netherlands). The aim of this project is to contribute to the EU’s carbon neutral goal in 2050, with developing novel technologies for the transformation of waste-EHL to high quality liquid fuel blends to meet the needs of fuels in hybrid cars, heavy-duty transport vehicles, ships and jet airplanes. The full utilization of EHL is expected to improve the energy efficiency of the 2 G bioethanol production chain.
