Fermentable sugars by chemical hydrolysis of biomass.
Abundant plant biomass has the potential to become a sustainable source of fuels and chemicals. Realizing this potential requires the economical conversion of recalcitrant lignocellulose into useful intermediates, such as sugars. We report a high-yielding chemical process for the hydrolysis of biomass into monosaccharides. Adding water gradually to a chloride ionic liquid-containing catalytic a...
متن کاملRefining Hemp Hurds into Fermentable Sugars or Ethanol
Steam pretreatment is one of the most efficient pretreatment technologies employed prior to enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosics to obtain high polysaccharide conversion. In this study, steam pretreatment of non-impregnated hemp hurds was investigated at two reactor scales (2 and 10 L) by varying the temperature from 200–230 °C. Glucan recoveries were relatively high (> 82 % of original con...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Different Brewerâs Yeast Strains Used for Non-alcoholic Beverage Fermentation in Media Containing Different Fermentable Sugars
Fermentation characteristics of four strains of brewer's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain 70424, S.rouxii strain 2535, S. rouxii strain 2531 and Saccharomyces ludwigii strain 3447) in Yeast Moldbrothcontaining four different fermentable sugars (glucose, fructose, maltose, or sucrose) were studied. Theaim was to consider the suitability of different strain/sugar treatment...
متن کاملDegradation of pentachlorophenol with the presence of fermentable and non-fermentable co-substrates in a microbial fuel cell.
Pentachlorophenol (PCP) was more rapidly degraded in acetate and glucose-fed microbial fuel cells (MFCs) than in open circuit controls, with removal rates of 0.12 ± 0.01 mg/Lh (14.8 ± 1.0 mg/g-VSS-h) in acetate-fed, and 0.08 ± 0.01 mg/L h (6.9 ± 0.8 mg/g-VSS-h) in glucose-fed MFCs, at an initial PCP concentration of 15 mg/L. A PCP of 15 mg/L had no effect on power generation from acetate but po...
متن کاملA mild thermomechanical process for the enzymatic conversion of radiata pine into fermentable sugars and lignin
BACKGROUND Conversion of softwoods into sustainable fuels and chemicals is important for parts of the world where softwoods are the dominant forest species. While they have high theoretical sugar yields, softwoods are amongst the most recalcitrant feedstocks for enzymatic processes, typically requiring both more severe pretreatment conditions and higher enzyme doses than needed for other lignoc...
