Saccharification and fermentation of lignocellulosic biomass using Trichoderma reesei cellulases and Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:

Chung, Yun-Chin

Abstract:

The efficiency of cellulose hydrolysis under straight saccharification and simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) conditions was evaluated using three lignocellulosic materials (switchgrass, cornstover, and poplar), which had been pretreated with dilute sulfuric acid under conditions which optimized xylose concentrations in the prehydrolysate liquid. Yields of glucose, cellobiose and ethanol obtained...
