PRODUCTION OF REDUCING SUGARS FROM LIGNOCELLULOSIC KIKUYU GRASS RESIDUES BY HYDROLYSIS USING SUBCRITICAL WATER IN BATCH AND SEMIBATCH REACTORS
ABSTRACT A subcritical hydrolysis of Kikuyu grass lignocellulose residues was carried out in batch and semi batch mode operations. Experiments assessed the effect of temperature (250-300 °C), mass ratio (6:130:1), pressure (1 490-3 190 psi), and water flow rate (3-9 ml/min) in reducing sugars (RS) y...
