Lignocellulosic biomass: a potential feedstock to replace petroleum

TL;DR: A broad overview of the consider-ations for replacing the US petroleum economy with one based on lignocellulosic biomass is provided in this paper, where the use of natural and renewable feedstocks such as trees and switchgrass is becoming a logical alternative to petroleum in light of looming oil shortages, increases in oil prices, and environmental sustainability considerations.

Fractionation of a lignocellulosic material

TL;DR: In this paper, a biphasic system is proposed for fractioning a lignocellulosic material, which comprises an ionic liquid phase essentially free of lignin in solution and cellulose as a precipitate, separating the two phases and recovering the precipitated cellulose from the separated second liquid phase.

The simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of pretreated woody crops to ethanol.

TL;DR: Four promising woody crops were pretreated by dilute sulfuric acid and evaluated in the simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process for ethanol production, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae alone achieved the highest ethanol yields and rates of hydrolysis at the higher enzyme loadings.
