“…2,22 This pretreatment can be performed without or with catalyst, either acidic (sulfuric or hydrochloric acid), basic (sodium hydroxide) or neutral (magnesium chloride). [22][23][24] This sequential pretreatment has been studied for different lignocellulosic materials such as E. globulus wood, 25 olive tree trimmings, 15 Miscanthus switchgrass, 20 corn stover, 26 Eucommia ulmoides wood, 16 elm, 17 rice straw, 17,19 barley straw, 27 wheat straw, [28][29][30] and sugarcane bagasse. 14,[31][32][33] These works show the current interest in this pretreatment to achieve the fractionation of agricultural wastes and woody materials and allow the utilization of the separated fractions in subsequent steps, such as enzymatic hydrolysis.…”
