ABSTRACT by-product of fuel ethanol industry [7]. Compared with traditional lignosulfonate or alkali lignin, EH-lignin pos- Lignin isolated from enzymatic hydrolyzed corn- sesses some valuable characteristics: lower content of stalks (EH-lignin) is a renewable natural polymer sugar, less impurities and narrow molecular weight dis- noted for its versatility and applicability in a vari- tribution. Furthermore, since the enzymatic hydrolysis ety of uses. Graft copolymerization of EH-lignin process of the cornstalks is carried out under relatively with acrylamide (AM) and the application of this mild conditions, many functional groups such as pheno- copolymer as a flocculant in dye wastewater lic hydroxyl, alcoholic hydroxyl and methoxyl are well treatment were studied in this article.
