Direct saccharification of lignocellulosic biomass by hydrolysis with formic acid solution

An effective hydrolysis method for recovering oligosaccharides directly from lignocellulosic biomass has been investigated. Formic acid was selected as a hydrolysis reagent, due to its high acidity in organic acids. The degrees of cellulose hydrolysis and lignin elution were determined by the combin...
