In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Blake A. Simmons spends much of his time researching Biomass, Lignin, Ionic liquid, Biochemistry and Organic chemistry. His Biomass research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hydrolysis, Fermentation, Biofuel and Pulp and paper industry. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cellulosic ethanol, Food science and Hydrolysate.

His work carried out in the field of Lignin brings together such families of science as Cellulose, Chemical engineering, Depolymerization, Peroxidase and Catalysis. He combines subjects such as Ethanol, Nuclear chemistry, Dissolution, Isoprenol and Enzymatic hydrolysis with his study of Ionic liquid. The study incorporates disciplines such as Eutectic system and Deep eutectic solvent in addition to Organic chemistry.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A mosaic monoploid reference sequence for the highly complex genome of sugarcane (113 citations)
  • Biomass pretreatment using deep eutectic solvents from lignin derived phenols (85 citations)
  • Biomass pretreatment using deep eutectic solvents from lignin derived phenols (85 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Organic chemistry
  • Gene

His primary scientific interests are in Biomass, Gene, Lignin, Ionic liquid and Biochemistry. His research integrates issues of Biofuel and Hydrolysis, Enzymatic hydrolysis in his study of Biomass. His studies deal with areas such as Fermentation and Cellulosic ethanol as well as Biofuel.

As part of one scientific family, Blake A. Simmons deals mainly with the area of Enzymatic hydrolysis, narrowing it down to issues related to the Lignocellulosic biomass, and often Pulp and paper industry, Choline chloride, Hardwood and Softwood. His Lignin study combines topics in areas such as Reagent, Small-angle neutron scattering, Chemical engineering and Dynamic light scattering. Blake A. Simmons has included themes like Sugar and Nuclear chemistry in his Ionic liquid study.
