Abstract:
A process for producing a transportation fuel from a lignocellulosic feedstock comprising subjecting a stream comprising lignin to a wet oxidation that produces low molecular weight carboxylic acids. These carboxylic acids and/or the corresponding esters are fed to a hydrogenation reaction or gas fermentation wherein they are converted to an alcohol. Heat from the wet oxidation may be supplied to any stage of the process in which heat is introduced.

Claim (Index 53):
The process according to  claim 51 , wherein step (iii) comprises separating the insoluble lignin from at least a portion of the ethanol, said separating comprising distilling an aqueous mixture comprising the ethanol and the insoluble lignin, and wherein the mixture subjected to the wet oxidation comprises still bottoms from said distillation.
