Simulation and optimization of barley straw organosolv pretreatment

Industrial Crops and Products, 2018
Abstract In this study, acid catalysed acetone organosolv pre-treatment of barley straw was investigated and the optimal conditions were determined using two different approaches: a new combined severity factor (CSF) and the response surface methodology (RSM) based on Box-Behnken experimental design.

Comparison of organosolv and hydrotropic pretreatments of eucalyptus for enhancing enzymatic saccharification

Bioresource Technology, 2016
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of organosolv and hydrotropic pretreatments on improving enzymatic hydrolysis of eucalyptus. The chemical composition of the fiber surface was analyzed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) to determine the surface characteristics of pretreated eucalyptus.

Organosolvent pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of rice straw for the production of bioethanol

World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2011
The present study investigates the operational conditions for organosolvent pretreatment and hydrolysis of rice straw. Among the different organic acids and organic solvents tested, acetone was found to be most effective based on the fermentable sugar yield. Optimization of process parameters for acetone pretreatment were carried out.

Alkaline organosolv pretreatment of corn stover for enhancing the enzymatic digestibility

Bioresource Technology, 2018
In the present study, a sodium hydroxide-methanol solution (SMs) pretreatment of corn stover was described to overcome biomass recalcitrance for the first time. Effects of sodium hydroxide loading, solid-to-liquid ratio, processing time and temperature on enzymatic saccharification were studied in detail.

Effect of organosolv pretreatment on mechanically pretreated biomass by use of concentrated ethanol as the solvent

Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering, 2017
In this study, we determined the effect of organosolv pretreatment on herbaceous biomasses corn stover and wheat straw, by using high-concentration ethanol as the solvent. A high-concentration of ethanol allows for the easy reuse and recycling of the solvent.

Organosolv pretreatment of rice straw for efficient acetone, butanol, and ethanol production

Bioresource Technology, 2014
Acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) was produced from rice straw using a process containing ethanol organosolv pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, and fermentation by Clostridium acetobutylicum bacterium. Pretreatment of the straw with 75% (v/v) aqueous ethanol containing 1% w/w sulfuric acid at 150 °C for 60 min resulted in the highest total sugar ...

The impact of glycerol organosolv pretreatment on the chemistry and enzymatic hydrolyzability of wheat straw

Bioresource Technology, 2015
Given that the glycerol organosolv pretreatment (GOP) can effectively improve the hydrolyzability of various lignocellulosic substrates, physicochemical changes of the substrate before and after the pretreatment was characterized to elucidate what is responsible for it.
