2012 journal article

Pretreatment of corn stover for sugar production with switchgrass-derived black liquor

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY, 111, 255–260.

By: J. Xu n, X. Zhang n & J. Cheng n

author keywords: Alkaline pretreatment; Black liquor; Corn stover; Sodium hydroxide; Switchgrass
MeSH headings : Biomass; Carbohydrates / biosynthesis; Hydrolysis; Lignin / metabolism; Poaceae / metabolism; Zea mays / metabolism
TL;DR: Results showed that, because of the high pH and the appreciable amount of carbohydrates in the black liquor, sugar production during enzymatic hydrolysis of corn stover pretreatment with black liquor was comparable to that of biomass pretreated with 1% NaOH. (via Semantic Scholar)

author keywords: Acid pretreatment; Genetic engineering; Lignin; Sugars; Switchgrass
MeSH headings : Carbohydrates / chemical synthesis; Cellulase / chemistry; Panicum / chemistry; Panicum / genetics; Plants, Genetically Modified / chemistry; Sulfuric Acids / chemistry
TL;DR: Genetic engineering resulted in a substantial increase in the ratio of acid soluble lignin:acid insoluble lignIn, which led to considerably increased sugar productions in both pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis. (via Semantic Scholar)

Production of high-starch duckweed and its conversion to bioethanol

BIOSYSTEMS ENGINEERING, 110(2), 67–72.

By: J. Xu n, W. Cui*, J. Cheng n & A. Stomp n

TL;DR: The ethanol yield of duckweed reached 6.42 × 103 l ha−1, about 50% higher than that of maize-based ethanol production, which makes duckweed a competitive starch source for fuel ethanol production. (via Semantic Scholar)

Pretreatment of switchgrass for sugar production with the combination of sodium hydroxide and lime

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY, 102(4), 3861–3868.

By: J. Xu n & J. Cheng n

author keywords: Biofuels; Biomass conversion; Lignocellulose; Lime; Sodium hydroxide
MeSH headings : Aspergillus niger / metabolism; Biomass; Biotechnology / methods; Calcium Compounds / chemistry; Carbohydrates / chemistry; Cellulose / chemistry; Cost-Benefit Analysis; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Hydrolysis; Lignin / chemistry; Oxides / chemistry; Poaceae; Sodium Hydroxide / chemistry; Temperature; Time Factors; Trichoderma / metabolism; Water / chemistry
TL;DR: Sodium hydroxide and lime were innovatively used together in this study to improve the cost-effectiveness of alkaline pretreatment of switchgrass at ambient temperature and the chemical expense was remarkably reduced due to the low cost of lime and the reduced loading of NaOH.

TL;DR: The study on calcium-lignin bonding showed that calcium ions crosslinked lignin molecules under alkaline conditions, which substantially decreased lign in solubilization during pretreatment, but the resulting high lignIn contents of the pretreated biomass did not compromise the improvement of enzymatic digestibility.
