Potencial da palha de cana-de-açúcar para produção de etanol

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of sugarcane straw biomass along with bagasse for the production of cellulosic ethanol has been discussed, with the goal of increasing ethanol production without expanding the area cultivated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass: converting food waste in valuable products

TL;DR: Second generation ethanol production has great potential to be a sustainable reality, especially in Brazil due to the large quantity of sugarcane bagasse encountered as industrial waste and efforts have been taken to make the process more cost-effective with regards to the discover of more effective enzymes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chrysoporthe cubensis: A new source of cellulases and hemicellulases to application in biomass saccharification processes

TL;DR: The plant pathogenic fungus Chrysoporthe cubensis was cultivated under solid state employing different substrates and the highest endoglucanase, FPase, β-glucosidase and xylanase activities were obtained using wheat bran as carbon source, showing a great potential to be used in biomass saccharification processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellulases and Hemicellulases from Endophytic Acremonium Species and Its Application on Sugarcane Bagasse Hydrolysis

TL;DR: The aim of this work was to have cellulase activity and hemicellulase activity screenings of endophyte Acremonium species (Acremonium zeae EA0802 and AcreMonium sp. EA0810) in submerged culture containing l-arabinose, d-xylose, oat spelt xylan, sugarcane bagasse, or corn straw as carbon source.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrolysis of oligosaccharides in soybean flour by soybean α-galactosidase

TL;DR: In this article, an α-Galactosidase was partially purified from germinating seeds by partitioning in an aqueous two-phase system and ion-exchange chromatography.
