Autohydrolysis Pretreatment of Waste Wheat Straw for Cellulosic Ethanol Production in a Co-located Straw Pulp Mill
APPLIED BIOCHEMISTRY AND BIOTECHNOLOGY, 175(2), 1193–1210.
author keywords: Autohydrolysis; Wheat straw; Enzymatic hydrolysis; Refining; Economics
MeSH headings : Biofuels; Cellulase / metabolism; Cellulose / chemistry; Endo-1,4-beta Xylanases / metabolism; Ethanol / chemistry; Fermentation; Filtration; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Hydrolysis; Mechanical Phenomena; Temperature; Triticum / chemistry; Waste Products
TL;DR:
The economic evaluation of this biorefinery process indicates that cellulosic ethanol production from autohydrolysis of WWS is a very profitable business, with 28.4 % of internal rate of return can be achieved based on current ethanol wholesale price in China.
