Advances in second‐generation biofuel production from rice straw and barley straw
Abstract This review critically examines recent advances in the use of rice straw and barley straw as lignocellulosic feedstocks for second‐generation biofuel production. A comprehensive analysis of their chemical composition, including cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and ash content, reveals how these intrinsic properties affect the efficiency of ...
