Analysis of pretreatments of sugar beet shreds for bioethanol production in respect of cellulose hydrolysis and waste flows

This paper analyzes some chemical pretreatments of sugar beet shreds concerning generated waste flows and yield of reducing sugars obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated material. Waste flows produced in pretreatments of sugar beet shreds originated from pectin and lignin removal from ra...

Description
Summary:This paper analyzes some chemical pretreatments of sugar beet shreds concerning generated waste flows and yield of reducing sugars obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated material. Waste flows produced in pretreatments of sugar beet shreds originated from pectin and lignin removal from raw material. Suitability of substrates prepared in single and two-step pretreatment procedure for enzymatic hydrolysis was determined based on the yield of reducing sugars released by cellulase action on them, while different possibilities of processing of wastewaters were discussed based on the characteristic of waste flows.
