Abstract:Woody biomass is not only abundant and sustainably available but also contains more glucan than most agricultural feedstocks. However, its structural strength and density make it more recalcitrant to enzymatic breakdown and limit SSF performance, especially at higher solids loadings needed to achieve desired ethanol titers. Because Co-Solvent Enhanced Lignocellulosic Fractionation (CELF) highly enriches glucan contents in pretreated solids by removing and recovering most of the hemicellulose and lignin, we hyp… Show more
“…Fig.2SSF-informed preliminary analysis of the effect of solids loading in CBP of CELF-pretreated biomass over the economics of the CELF-based biorefinery. Parameters based on CELF studies in the literature 13,16,65. CBP: consolidated bioprocessing; IRR: internal rate of return; SSF: simultaneous saccharification and fermentation.…”
Harnessing the natural diversity of plant biomass for producing more economical and environmentally sustainable liquid fuels entails integrating different chemical or biological processes together, each finely tuned for a unique...

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
