Organosolv

Organosolv is a big word that means a way to get useful things out of plants like trees. It's like making lemonade from lemons, but instead of lemons, we use trees! When we want to get something useful out of a tree, like wood or pulp, we need to take the parts of the tree that we don't need out first. This is where organosolv comes in. It uses a special kind of liquid to break down the tree parts that we don't need, like bark and leaves. This liquid helps to separate the useful things we want from the tree, like lignin and cellulose. These things can help make things like paper or even fuel. So, organosolv is like a magic potion that helps us get useful things out of trees!
