Abstract:We investigated the effect of the reaction variable (time) on the extraction and hydrolysis process. The data showed that the methodologies of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) must be adequate for each type of biomass and each regional reality. For the contents of total sugars in the biomass of green coconut, babassu and Brazil nut shell epicarp, the highest yields were found under different conditions from those proposed by NREL. In the total lignin content, the highest yields obtained were tho… Show more
