The optimized CO2-added ammonia explosion pretreatment for bioethanol production from rice straw.
Young-Lok Cha,Jungwoo Yang,Jong-Woong Ahn,Youn-Ho Moon,Young-Mi Yoon,Gyeong-Dan Yu,Gi Hong An,In-Hu Choi +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that CO2-added ammonia pretreatment is an appropriate process for bioethanol production from rice straw because it strongly increased the surface area and pore size, thus increasing enzymatic accessibility for enzymatically saccharification.
