Alcohol from cellulose
TL;DR: In this paper, a process is described which completely converts cellulose to fermentable sugars as compared to 50 to 70% conversion obtained with other methods, using chemical solvents followed by hydrolysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of lignin-metal complexation on enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose.
TL;DR: Ca (II) was found to reduce the inhibitive effect of bound lignin in pretreated wood substrate, suggesting that Ca(II) can also form complex with bound lIGNin on pretreated solid lignocelluloses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy and environmental issues relating to greenhouse gas emissions in Turkey
TL;DR: In 1992, Turkish Ministry of Environment issued a regulation providing for emissions testing for cars, trucks and vans as discussed by the authors, which can play an important role in a strategy to control carbon dioxide emissions while raising revenue.
Dissertation
Ethanol from Lignocellulose: Physiological Effects of Inhibitors and Fermentation Strategies
TL;DR: Fed-batch fermentation was suggested as a suitable mode of operation for fermenting dilute-acid hydrolyzates from the physiological studies of the inhibitors and a simple feedback control strategy was developed, allowing the feed rate to be determined on-line, without any other input variable than the measured carbon dioxide evolution rate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Nutrients on Fermentation of Pretreated Wheat Straw at very High Dry Matter Content by Saccharomyces cerevisiae
TL;DR: Wheat straw hydrolysate produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of hydrothermal pretreated wheat straw at a very high solids concentration of 30% dry matter was used for testing the effect of nutrients on their ability to improve fermentation performance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
