Journal ArticleDOI
An evaluation of dilute acid and ammonia fiber explosion pretreatment for cellulosic ethanol production.
TL;DR: This review highlights the key differences of these two pretreatments based on compositional analysis, cellulose and its crystallinity, morphological changes, structural changes to lignin, enzymatic reactivity and enzyme adsorption onto pretreated solids and finally cellulosic ethanol production from the hydrolysate of DA and AFEX treated corn stover.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organosolvent pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of rice straw for the production of bioethanol
Raveendran Sindhu,Parameswaran Binod,Kanakambaran Usha Janu,Rajeev K. Sukumaran,Ashok Pandey +4 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that acetone pretreated rice straw can be used as a good feed stock for bioethanol production and the structural changes before and after pretreatment were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies on structural and physical characteristics of a novel exopolysaccharide from Pseudozyma sp. NII 08165
Kuttuvan Valappil Sajna,Rajeev K. Sukumaran,Lalitha Devi Gottumukkala,Himani Jayamurthy,Kiran S. Dhar,Ashok Pandey +5 more
TL;DR: The pseudoplastic behaviour of aqueous EPS with a thermal stability up to 220°C indicated its potential utility as a thickening or gelling agent in food industry and physical properties of the exopolysaccharide determined indicated its possible potential in different industrial applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioethanol production from dilute acid pretreated Indian bamboo variety (Dendrocalamus sp.) by separate hydrolysis and fermentation
Raveendran Sindhu,Mathiyazhakan Kuttiraja,Parameswaran Binod,Rajeev K. Sukumaran,Ashok Pandey +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of various process parameters affecting enzymatic saccharification like solid loading, enzyme loading, incubation time and surfactant concentration was studied using a response surface method according to Box-Behnken design.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of fungal culture filtrate containing chitinase as a biocontrol agent against Helicoverpa armigera
TL;DR: To evaluate the biocontrol efficacy of culture filtrate containing chitinase from Trichoderma harzianum against Heliothis.
