TREATMENT OF BIOMASS TO OBTAIN ETHANOL

Ethanol was produced using biocatalysts that are able to ferment sugars derived from treated biomass. Sugars were obtained by pretreating biomass under conditions of high solids and low ammonia concentration, followed by saccharification. De l'éthanol est produit au moyen de biocatalyseurs pouv...

Summary:Ethanol was produced using biocatalysts that are able to ferment sugars derived from treated biomass. Sugars were obtained by pretreating biomass under conditions of high solids and low ammonia concentration, followed by saccharification. De l'éthanol est produit au moyen de biocatalyseurs pouvant faire fermenter les sucres provenant d'une biomasse traitée. Les sucres sont obtenus grâce à un prétraitement de la biomasse dans des conditions de forte concentration de matières solides et de faible concentration d'ammoniac, cette étape étant suivie d'une saccharification.
