UNDERSTANDING THE LIMITATIONS OF REMOVAL OF HEMICELLULOSES DURING AUTOHYDROLYSIS OF A MIXTURE OF SOUTHERN HARDWOODS

Extraction of hemicelluloses from wood prior to pulping is being pursued to generate more value-added products, while still producing high quality pulp from the pre-extracted wood. For a better understanding of the factors limiting selective extraction, enzymatic hydrolysis in combination with size...
