Lignocellulosic biomass is abundant, renewable and environmentally
friendly resource, which can be converted into bioethano
But for the conversion of biomass
into bioethanol, the degradation of lignocelluloses is still a major
barrier to obtain a high overall ethanol yield. The pretreatment is
necessary to breakdown the recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass
for the second generation bio-ethanol production (Galbe
and Zacchi, 2012)
