Alternative Lime Pretreatment of Corn Stover for Second-Generation Bioethanol Production

In this work, a delignification process, using lime (Ca(OH)<sub>2</sub>) as an alternative alkali, was evaluated to improve enzymatic saccharification of corn stover cellulose, with the final goal of obtaining second-generation bioethanol. For that, an experimental design was conducted i...
