Sugarcane bagasse pretreatment using three imidazolium-based ionic liquids; mass balances and enzyme kinetics
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Effective pretreatment is key to achieving high enzymatic saccharification efficiency in processing lignocellulosic biomass to fermentable sugars, biofuels and value-added products. Ionic liquids (ILs), still relatively new class of...
