Reducing Sugars Production from Cellulosic Wastes by Subcritical Water Hydrolysis in a Continuous Lab Scale Unit

Second generation biofuels are those produced from lignocellulosic biomass or crops that do not compete with food production. Cellulose and hemicellulose in plants can be transformed to building blocks, pentoses and hexoses, by hydrolysis. However, most processes require a physic-chemical pretreatme...
