Second-generation ethanol from pineapple leaf fibers [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2018
The use of different lignocellulosic residues for the production of cellulosic ethanol is an alternative for the expanding demand of this fuel without increasing the planting area of traditional carbohydrate crops. One of the proposed alternatives is the use of pineapple leaf fibers (PALF) residues, which is a material rich in cellulose that can be ...
