Background and General Information

TL;DR: Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are emerging as a new “green” solvent that have a high potential for biomass processing as discussed by the authors, which is a challenge to commercialize biomass-based technologies.

Improving the semi-continuous flow-through subcritical water hydrolysis of grape pomace (Vitis vinifera L.) by pH and temperature control

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated how pH (6−10) and temperature (150-210 °C) could be explored to improve yields and reduce the formation of inhibitory compounds during the semi-continuous flow-through subcritical water hydrolysis of grape pomace (Vitis vinifera L.).

Process integration and scale up considerations of Typha domingensis macrophyte bioconversion into ethanol

TL;DR: In this article , an innovative process of 2 G ethanol production from Typha domingensis macrophyte was investigated, where both starch and cellulose fractions of feedstock were exploited for the production of fermentable sugars.

Hydrolysis of lignocellulosic materials for ethanol production: a review.

TL;DR: Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation effectively removes glucose, which is an inhibitor to cellulase activity, thus increasing the yield and rate of cellulose hydrolysis, thereby increasing the cost of ethanol production from lignocellulosic materials.

The path forward for biofuels and biomaterials

TL;DR: The integration of agroenergy crops and biorefinery manufacturing technologies offers the potential for the development of sustainable biopower and biomaterials that will lead to a new manufacturing paradigm.

Biomass recalcitrance: engineering plants and enzymes for biofuels production.

TL;DR: Here, the natural resistance of plant cell walls to microbial and enzymatic deconstruction is considered, collectively known as “biomass recalcitrance,” which is largely responsible for the high cost of lignocellulose conversion.

Pretreatments to enhance the digestibility of lignocellulosic biomass

TL;DR: Steam pretreatment, lime pret treatment, liquid hot water pretreatments and ammonia based Pretreatments are concluded to be pretreatment with high potentials, providing an improved accessibility of the cellulose for hydrolytic enzymes.

Environmental, economic, and energetic costs and benefits of biodiesel and ethanol biofuels

TL;DR: Transportation biofuels such as synfuel hydrocarbons or cellulosic ethanol, if produced from low-input biomass grown on agriculturally marginal land or from waste biomass, could provide much greater supplies and environmental benefits than food-basedBiofuels.
