    Biopolymers and obtaining process Field of the Invention
    The present invention belongs to the field of the chemical industry, and more specifically to the field of the conversion of biomass to a polymeric solid product with added value. The invention provides a process for obtaining biopolymers in which at least partially the amount by weight corresponding to phenol has been replaced by a renewable waste material of lower cost. Background of the invention
    Phenolic resins represented a prominent development in the history of the chemical industry, and more specifically, in the polymer chemical industry (L. Pilate, “Phenolic resins: A century of progress”, Springer, Berlin Heidelberg, 2010. DOI: 10.1007 / 978-3-64204714-5). The global production of these materials exceeds 5 · 106 tons per year, and over time, many applications have been developed on an industrial scale, such as their use as adhesives, foams, or components in abrasives or molds.
    The production of phenolic resins is based mainly on phenol. This is synthesized from fossil sources such as benzene, by alkylation and oxidation (Hock process). At present, there is a need, on the one hand, to reduce production costs and the final price of the polymer obtained, while on the other hand, it is also of interest, from an ecological point of view, the replacement of the raw material from from fossil sources by renewable raw material. Therefore, the possibility of replacing phenol with cashew nut shell oil, also known as cashew nut shell liquid, has been studied.
    or CNSL), tannins and lignin (L. Pilate, "Phenolic resins: A century of progress", Springer, Berlin Heidelberg, 2010, pp. 525-528), of which the first two are actually mixtures of phenolic compounds.


    According to Taiwo et al (EA Taiwo, "Advances in Petrochemicals", Chapter 1 "Cashew Nut Shell Oil - A Renewable and Reliable Petrochemical Feedstock", Ed. V. Patel, InTech, Rijeka, 2015, DOI: 10.5772 / 61096 ), cashew nut shell oil mostly comprises cardanol (ie 3-alkylphenol), cardol (ie 5-alkylresorcinol), anacardic acid (ie 5-alkylsalicylic acid) and 6-methylcardol. On the other hand, tannins are soluble polyphenolic compounds found in many plants (Quideau et al, Angew. Chemie 2011, 50 (3), pp. 586-621). A large part of these compounds are monomeric derivatives of phenol, or oligomers. From this, it is evident that to carry out its substitution it is necessary to search for compounds with a structure and reactivity similar to that of phenol.
    Lignin is considered an adequate substitute for phenols for reasons similar to those mentioned above. In its three-dimensional structure it presents aromatic groups with methoxide and / or hydroxyl substituents, since plants synthesize lignin from coniferyl, synapyl and para-coumaryl alcohols (Collard et al, Renew. Sustain. Energy Rev. 2014, 38, pp. 594-608).
    All these alternatives correspond to renewable materials, which have an added value since they are isolated and purified products (eg lignin), products extracted with solvent after a roasting stage (eg cashew nut shell liquid), and / or that present interesting properties for direct applications such as the use as antioxidants (eg tannins). However, precisely because of this, these materials would not meet the economic requirement of reducing the costs of the resin raw material, which makes it difficult to implement them in these processes, and therefore, the use of these substances or materials in the industrial sector
    As a result of these existing needs in the sector, in recent years numerous proposals have emerged in the literature. For example, Xu et al (RSC Adv. 2016, 6 (47), pp. 40975–40981) describes the obtaining of a phenolic resin foam from the birch bark, which a priori could be classified as a residual material. However, it is a method for obtaining an oil composed of phenolic substances, in which the phenol is replaced by phenolic derivatives. Specifically, the obtaining of these derivatives by means of a liquefaction process is described, in which


    Only that part of the biomass that contains the appropriate structure, that is, lignin, can be incorporated, since the process comprises its breakage into monomeric fragments. However, since the biopolymer also comprises cellulose and hemicellulose, only a partial use of the material occurs, which would cause waste management problems, thus increasing the costs of the industrial process.
    10 On the other hand, Wang et al (Eur. Polym. J. 2009, 45 (12), pp. 3380–3388) describe the incorporation of lignin into phenolic resins, where lignin has previously been separated from biomass, taking advantage the natural structure present in the plant, which is widely known. However, the use of lignin, as indicated above, requires a previous stage of separation and purification, which in this case
    15 involves the extraction of white pine sawdust by means of the technique known in the state of the art as organosolv, using mixtures of the ethanol-hot water co-solvents. Therefore, this approach would also entail an additional cost associated with the preprocessing of lignin, necessary to be able to dispose of it in the proper way for the replacement of phenolic resins.
    20 It follows the need to find a new material in which at least partially the amount corresponding to phenol is replaced, at a lower cost, because it is at an end point of the value chain, so that It is interesting for industrial processes from an economic point of view, while
    25 allow the integral use of renewable waste material, to avoid additional waste management costs that cannot be integrated into the industrial process.

    Detailed description of the invention
    The present invention provides a process for obtaining a biopolymer, in which at least partially the amount by weight corresponding to the phenol has been replaced by a renewable waste material of lower cost. This procedure does not depend on the original composition of the biomass used as a starting material, unlike the procedures existing in the state of the art, and also allows a high and efficient carbon transformation. Preferably, said process comprises replacing an amount equal to or greater than 50% of the amount by weight corresponding to the phenol by a renewable waste material; more preferably, of an amount equal to or greater than 75% of the amount by weight corresponding to the phenol by a renewable residual material.
    Specifically, the present invention provides a process, based on hydrothermal carbonization, for obtaining a solid carbonaceous material from lignocellulosic biomass, regardless of the proportion existing between cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin biopolymers, and even in that lignocellulosic biomass containing an exceptionally low lignin content. This allows for example that renewable materials or biomass with a high water content, such as orange peel or herbs, can be transformed into a product with added value, and is applicable to all components of the organic fraction of waste urban solids (FORSU), agro-industrial waste or pruning waste (including a high woody content), among others. Furthermore, in the hydrothermal carbonization process the different starting materials do not necessarily have to be pure (eg from a single producer or from a single source of biomass), but it is possible to process a mixture of biomass from different sites / plants etc. .
    By "organic matter" in the context of the present invention is meant the dry matter content except ashes.
    “Biomass” or “renewable waste material” means any organic matter that can be used to obtain biofuels, such as, for example, crop residues, manure, or any other type of waste.


    By "hydrothermal carbonization" or "HTC" (hydrothermal carbonization) a process of conversion of biomass is known in the state of the art, in which the organic matter is transformed by means of a thermal treatment in aqueous solution. The resulting product can be incinerated or used for all uses traditionally reserved for lignite. This process transforms all the carbon in biomass into carbon, without releasing carbon dioxide
    or methane, and leads to obtaining a biofuel of high calorific value (M. M. Titirici, "Sustainable Carbon Materials from Hydrothermal Processes", Ed. John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2013. DOI: 10.1002 / 9781118622179). This process was developed by Friedrich Bergius in 1913, and over the years new applications have emerged, such as the conversion of garden waste (Titirici et al, Chem. Mater. 2007, 19, pp. 4205–4212) .
