Yield-determining factors in high-solids enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose
BACKGROUND Working at high solids (substrate) concentrations is advantageous in enzymatic conversion of lignocellulosic biomass as it increases product concentrations and plant productivity while lowering energy and water input. However, for a number of lignocellulosic substrates it has been shown that at increasing substrate concentration, the corresponding yield decreases in a fashion which c...
متن کاملEnzymatic lignocellulose hydrolysis: Improved cellulase productivity by insoluble solids recycling
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND It is necessary to develop efficient methods to produce renewable fuels from lignocellulosic biomass. One of the main challenges to the industrialization of lignocellulose conversion processes is the large amount of cellulase enzymes used for the hydrolysis of cellulose. One method for decreasing the amount of enzyme used is to recycle the enzymes. In this study, the re...
متن کاملRole of lignin in the enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose
Characterization, understanding and overcoming barriers of enzymatic hydrolysis of different raw materials is essential for the development of economically competitive processes based on enzymatic treatments. This work focused on factors relevant for the improvement of enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose raw materials derived from softwood. The major interest of the work was in lignin. Speci...
متن کاملProduction and effect of aldonic acids during enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose at high dry matter content
BACKGROUND The recent discovery of accessory proteins that boost cellulose hydrolysis has increased the economical and technical efficiency of processing cellulose to bioethanol. Oxidative enzymes (e.g. GH61) present in new commercial enzyme preparations have shown to increase cellulose conversion yields. When using pure cellulose substrates it has been determined that both oxidized and unoxidi...
متن کاملTorque measurements reveal large process differences between materials during high solid enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated lignocellulose
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND A common trend in the research on 2nd generation bioethanol is the focus on intensifying the process and increasing the concentration of water insoluble solids (WIS) throughout the process. However, increasing the WIS content is not without problems. For example, the viscosity of pretreated lignocellulosic materials is known to increase drastically with increasing WIS c...
