Removal of non-structural components from poplar whole-tree chips to enhance hydrolysis and fermentation performance

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2018
Background Whole-tree chips will be a likely feedstock for future biorefineries because of their low cost. Non-structural components (NSC), however, represent a significant part of whole-tree chips.
