“…This coating of the fibrils may influence cellulose fibril bundling and interaction, perhaps preventing cellulose fibril co-crystallisation (aggregation). Pulp and paper manufacture, biofuel processing, and digestion of feed all involve removal of xylan from cellulose, and so discovery of plants in which xylan is not bound to cellulose may facilitate aspects of these processes27,33,34 . This improved understanding of secondary cell wall architecture suggests novel strategies for preparation and application of biomaterials from plant cell walls.Plant growth and cell wall preparationPlants were Arabidopsis thaliana Columbia-0 ecotype.…”

“…Although its composition of barley grain husk, pericarp and fragments of endosperm is contingent upon the barley type, harvest time and mashing conditions [26], carbohydrates comprise of around half of the dry mass of BSG, with the balance mostly being proteins and lignin. Challenges associated with using BSG as a feedstock includes the existence of a complex outer layer, making it difficult to separate and convert, and a high moisture content (80% -85%), making it susceptible to microbial growth and spoilage within a 7 -10 day period [6]. The moisture issue can be stabilized post production in the brewing process, deterioration of the feedstock through microbial activity can further reduce yields in the conversion process [27].…”

“…The technical development of SOMs has been well researched in chemistry and biochemistry, but not in the fields of supply chain and economics, which are essential to its market utilization. The technical challenges associated with harvesting sugars and other useful compounds from lignocellulose is well known, being the access to these sugars being hindered by the recalcitrance of plant cell walls [6]. Even if technical hurdles are overcome to enable this feedstock to be competitive with conventional materials, challenges remain relative to the acquisition, transportation/logistics, and product fulfillment of lignocellulose.…”
