Biomass Production a Stronger Driver of Cellulosic Ethanol Yield than Biomass Quality
1 Corn grain produced on fertile cropland is used for both human and livestock consumption. However, co-production of distiller’s grains notwithstanding, the use of corn grain and fertile cropland to produce fuel remains controversial, driving interest in cellulosic fuels generated from vegetative (non-grain) plant biomass (Biello, 2011; Wetzstein and Wetzstein, 2011; Bonin and Lal, 2012). Bioe...
متن کاملInvestigating biomass saccharification for the production of cellulosic ethanol
The production of second generation biofuels -cellulosic ethanol from renewable lignocellulosic biomass has the potential to lead the bioindustrial revolution necessary to the transition from a fossil fuel-based economy to a sustainable carbohydrate economy. Effective release of fermentable sugars through biomass pretreatment followed by enzymatic hydrolysis is among the most costly steps for e...
متن کاملProcess Development for Ethanol Production based on Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Cellulosic Biomass
The utilization of biomass to provide a source of liquid fuels, such as ethanol, requires the conversion of al l available sugars to ethanol. This paper deals with the various physical and chemical pretreatments employed for the treatment of cellulosic materials, and then describes the production of cellulase in batch and continuous systems. This enzyme (cellulase), when contacted with pretreat...
متن کاملEnzymatic hydrolysis of cellulosic biomass
technology was selected as a key area for biomass technology development in the 1980s, and the US Department of Energy (DOE) has actively supported the scale up of ethanol production since the Office of Alcohol Fuels was created in the DOE after the ‘energy crisis’ of the 1970s. Although biological conversion of cellulosic biomass to fuels and chemicals through enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose...
متن کاملEthanol Production from Various Sugars and Cellulosic Biomass by White Rot Fungus Lenzites betulinus
Lenzites betulinus, known as gilled polypore belongs to Basidiomycota was isolated from fruiting body on broadleaf dead trees. It was found that the mycelia of white rot fungus Lenzites betulinus IUM 5468 produced ethanol from various sugars, including glucose, mannose, galactose, and cellobiose with a yield of 0.38, 0.26, 0.07, and 0.26 g of ethanol per gram of sugar consumed, respectively. Th...
