Thread Rolling: An Efficient Mechanical Pretreatment for Corn Stover Saccharification

Sugar cane bagasse and corn stalks are rich in lignocellulose, which can be degraded into monosaccharides through enzymatic hydrolysis. Appropriate pretreatment methods effectively improve the efficiency of lignocellulose To enhance hydrolysis, thread rolling as a physical was applied this study. The influence raw material meshes size after also taken research target. Specific surface area analysis, Scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-rays diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) were used for characterizations. results showed that, total monosaccharide recovery rates materials, 20–40 mesh, 40–60 60–80 mesh enzymolysis substrates 17.6%, 34.58%, 37.94%, 50.69%, respectively. sample better than that material. Moreover, with larger exhibited higher smaller meshes. This indicated
