Integration of Organosolv Process for Biomass Pretreatment in a Biorefinery

open access: yes, 2016
Biorefinery development by the bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass has attracted much interest in recent years. The pretreatment process plays an important role in the commercialized production of several products, including cellulosic ethanol. From

Bioconversion of bamboo to bioethanol using the two-stage organosolv and alkali pretreatment [PDF]

open access: yesBioResources, 2012
Bamboo’s ability to grow on nutrient-poor soils, with little requirement of silvicultural management, easy harvesting characteristics, vegetative propagation, fast growth, and a host of other desirable characteristics, make it a good candidate as an ...

Atomistic Origins of Biomass Recalcitrance in Organosolv Pretreatment

open access: yesChemical Engineering Science, 2022
Secondary plant cell walls are made from three common biopolymers, cellulose, lignin, and hemicellulose, representing a critical feedstock for sustainable biomaterial production. Separating lignocellulosic biomass components for use in tailored sustainable energy and materials applications is challenging, as the biopolymers are in close proximity ...

The effect of organosolv pretreatment on the enzymatic hydrolysis of poplar [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, 1984
AbstractThe use of alcohol/water/catalyst mixtures to delignify wood allows the lignin to be recovered in a usable form while leaving the carbohydrate fraction relatively intact. The effects of temperature, reaction time, and the type of solvent and catalyst on the delignification of milled poplar wood were investigated.

Fractionation of Cellulose-Rich Products from an Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) by Means of Steam Explosion Followed by Organosolv Treatment

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
In this study an empty fruit bunch (EFB) was subjected to a two-step pretreatment to defragment cellulose-rich fractions as well as lignin polymers from its cell walls.

The O-factor: using the H-factor concept to predict the outcome of organosolv pretreatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The H-factor, a parameter used extensively to analyze and predict the outcome of kraft pulping, is applied to organosolv pretreatment. The total solid yield after organosolv pretreatment fits well with the H-factor. The concept has been extended to apply

Optimization of Organosolv Pretreatment with Acid Catalyst to Enhance Enzymatic Saccharification of Corn Husk [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2023
Due to awareness of global warming and the devastation of environmental resources, the management of agricultural residues after each harvesting season has been integrated into the biorefining process to increase its value and mitigate environmental ...

Effect of Various Pretreatment Methods on Bioethanol Production from Cotton Stalks

open access: yesFermentation, 2019
Cotton stalks (CS) are considered a good candidate for fuel-ethanol production due to its abundance and high carbohydrate content, but the direct conversion without pretreatment always results in extremely low yields due to the recalcitrant nature of ...
