Graph representing Equation (1) for various P values. For lignin with a low percentage of cleavable bonds, it is close to impossible to obtain high individual yields of products under low severity conditions. Lignin varieties with a high proportion of reactive linkages (β‐O‐4, or esters in genetically modified plants) are required for high‐yield depolymerisation to be possible.
