Kinetic Study of Acid Hydrolysis of Rice Straw
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rice straw is a renewable, cheap, and abundant waste in tropical countries. The pentose content of rice straw can be used as a substrate for many types of value-added products such as xylitol and biofuel. Dilute acid hydrolysis mainly releases pentose from rice straw. The objective of the study was to determine the effect of H2SO4 concentration and reaction time on the xylose production. The variation of the main product xylose with the reaction time was described by a kinetic model and kinetic parameters were calculated to describe the variation of the xylose production with time. The optimum yield (19.35 g/L) was obtained at 0.24 mol/L H2SO4 and 30 minutes.

Kinetic Modeling of Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Pretreated Sorghum Bicolor and Rice Husk
In this study, the hydrolysis of pretreated sorghum stem and rice husk was investigated at various initial enzyme concentrations and substrate loadings. The slowdown in enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic materials with conversion has often been attributed to decreasing the activity of enzyme. A kinetic model was developed and expressed mathematically based on enzyme deactivation for enzyma...

Slurries of rice-straw cellulose (obtained by delignification and removal of hemicelluloses from the powdered raw material) were subjected to ultrasonic waves at different intensities for various times (constant temperature). Susceptibility of the samples to cellulose-hydrolysis increased initially with pretreatment time, reaching a maximum or a constant level thereafter. Maximum glucose yi...

متن کاملStudy of chemical pretreatment and enzymatic saccharification for producing fermentable sugars from rice straw.
This study evaluated a cost-effective approach for the conversion of rice straw into fermentable sugars. The composition of rice straw pretreated with 1 % sulfuric acid or 1 % sodium hydroxide solution was compared to rice straw with no chemical pretreatment. Enzymatic saccharification experiments on non-pretreated rice straw (NPRS), pretreated rice straw (PRS), and pretreated rice straw with a...
متن کاملPerformance of AFEX™ pretreated rice straw as source of fermentable sugars: the influence of particle size
BACKGROUND It is widely believed that reducing the lignocellulosic biomass particle size would improve the biomass digestibility by increasing the total surface area and eliminating mass and heat transfer limitation during hydrolysis reactions. However, past studies demonstrate that particle size influences biomass digestibility to a limited extent. Thus, this paper studies the effect of partic...
