Morphological modification of Chromolaena odorata cellulosic biomass using alkaline peroxide oxidation pretreatment methodology and its enzymatic conversion to biobased products

In this study, the structural modification of Siam weed (Chromolaena odorata) was performed using NaOH–H2O2- and Ca(OH)2–H2O2-based oxidative pretreatment for the enzymatic conversion of the biomass to a biocommodity, reducing sugar (RS). Pretreatment of raw sample was evaluated at temperatures of 6...
