Case studies on sugar production from underutilized woody biomass using sulfite chemistry

Creator:

Zhu, J. Y., Chandra, M. Subhosh, Gleisner, Roland, Gilles, William, Gao, Johnway, Marrs, Gevan, Anderson, Dwight, and Sessions, John

Abstract:

We examined two case studies to demonstrate the advantages of sulfite chemistry for pretreating underutilized woody biomass to produce sugars through enzymatic saccharification. In the first case study, we evaluated knot rejects from a magnesium-based sulfite mill for direct enzymatic sugar production. We found that the sulfite mill rejects are...

Using sulfite chemistry for robust bioconversion of Douglas-fir forest residue to bioethanol at high titer and lignosulfonate: A pilot-scale evaluation

Creator:

Zhu, J. Y., Chandra, M. Subhosh, Gu, Feng, Gleisner, Roland, Reiner, Rick, Sessions, John, Marrs, Gevan, Gao, Johnway, and Anderson, Dwight

Abstract:

This study demonstrated at the pilot-scale (50 kg) use of Douglas-fir forest harvest residue, an underutilized forest biomass, for the production of high titer and high yield bioethanol using sulfite chemistry without solid–liquor separation and detoxification. Sulfite Pretreatment to Overcome the Recalcitrance of Lignocelluloses (SPORL) was directly applied to the...
