Structural Analysis of Alkaline Pretreated Rice Straw for Ethanol Production

Rice straw (RS) is an abundant, readily available agricultural waste, which shows promise as a potential feedstock for Asian ethanol production. To enhance release of glucose by enzymatic hydrolysis, RS was pretreated with aqueous ammonia (27% w/w) at two pretreatment temperatures: room temperature...
