Bioethanol from wood and agro-residues
An economically feasible wet-mechanochemical process as milling pretreatment has been developed, which can unravel cellulosic components into nanoscale fibers. The nanofibrous product , obtained this way showed a high enzymatic accessibility, while keeping the cellulose crystalline structure and the lignin content. This process is based on the understanding of the nanoscopic structural characteristics of wood and cellulose. In the mechanochemical treatment, enzymatic saccharification and fermentation progress efficiently without the chemical treatments such as lignin removal. Also, dependency on raw material is low and the process can be applied as the pretreatment of hardwoods, softwoods, straws, and others. The greatest advantage is the reduction in the cost of enzymes such as cellulase, which in some cases dominate over half the cost of bioethanol production. The mechanochemically treated products can be sufficiently saccharified with relatively small amount of enzymes.
