Xylan extraction from pretreated sugarcane bagasse using alkaline and enzymatic approaches
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017 Background New biorefinery concepts are necessary to drive industrial use of lignocellulose biomass components. Xylan recovery before enzymatic hydrolysis of the glucan component is a way to add value to the hemicellulose fraction, which can be used in ...
