In this project we intend to demonstrate that it is more sensible (logical and economic) not to pre-treat lignocellulose so harshly, and have a more "holistic" approach to the process delivering the desired products whilst minimising overall process energy and cost by working on the optimisation of generating partial breakdown products and ensuring that the subsequent fermentation organis…
Nowadays the raw material used for ethanol production is sugar cane sacarose. In Brazil, the availability of bagasse with low costs makes the development of technologies to hydrolyse this material and use it for the production of ethanol attractive, due to the possibility of integration with sugar plants and distilleries, using the existing infrastructure. If bagasse is used, a significan…
