“…Bagasse is an abundant agro-industrial byproduct and is used in many different applications, such as animal feed and paper (Pandey et al 2000;Hernández-Salas et al 2009;Loh et al 2013). Bagasse consists of approximately 50% cellulose and 25% each of hemicellulose and lignin; it represents an abundant, inexpensive, and readily available source of renewable lignocellulosic biomass (Sun et al 2004).…”

“…7,10,11 A explosão a vapor tem sido proposta como um dos métodos mais promissores para separar os principais constituintes da biomassa vegetal e aumentar a sua susceptibilidade à bioconversão. 8,[12][13][14][15][16] Este processo, que atua tanto química como fisicamente na estrutura do material lignocelulósico, está baseado no contato direto da biomassa com vapor saturado à alta pressão por um determinado tempo de residência no reator, seguido de descompressão rápida à condição atmosférica (explosão). Ao longo deste processo, as ligações quími-cas que mantêm os componentes macromoleculares da fitobiomassa fortemente associados são em parte quebradas, de forma que, no momento da descompressão, o material é desfibrado com facilidade e assim reduzido a partículas menores, aumentando a área superficial de contato e diminuindo a resistência da parede celular à sacarificação.…”

“…The conversion of sugarcane bagasse into fermentable sugars requires essentially two steps: pretreatment and hydrolysis. Hydrolysis is conducted in the presence of enzymes (exoglucanases, endo-glucanases and cellobiases) or mineral acids and releases glucose units from the cellulose molecules (Hernández-Salas et al 2009 (Andric et al 2010). The cost of utilities for enzymatic hydrolysis is low compared to acid, or alkaline hydrolysis because it is usually conducted at mild conditions and does not cause corrosion problems (Duff and Murray 1996).…”
