DOI: 10.1016/j.renene.2020.05.116
Abstract: Abstract Second-generation ethanol process uses lignocellulose, but a pre-treatment is required to degrade lignin before saccharification. Biological pre-treatment, using phenoloxidases, represents a cheap and eco-friendly option. Mould contamination can be overcome by heat pre-conditioning of… read more here.
