Rice hulls, a complex lignocellulosic material with high lignin (15.38 +/- 0.2%) and ash (18.71 +/- 0.01%) content, contain 35.62 +/- 0.12% cellulose and 11.96 +/- 0.73% hemicellulose and has the potential to serve as a low-cost feedstock for production of ethanol. Dilute H2SO4 pretreatments at varied temperature (120-190 degrees C) and enzymatic saccharification (45 degrees C, pH 5.0) were evaluated for conversion of rice hull cellulose and hemicellulose to monomeric sugars. The maximum yield of monomeric sugars from rice hulls (15%, w/v) by dilute H2SO4 (1.0%, v/v) pretreatment and enzymatic saccharification (45 degrees C, pH 5.0, 72 h) using cellulase, beta-glucosidase, xylanase, esterase, and Tween 20 was 287 +/- 3 mg/g (60% yield based on total carbohydrate content). Under this condition, no furfural and hydroxymethyl furfural were produced. The yield of ethanol per L by the mixed sugar utilizing recombinant Escherichia colistrain FBR 5 from rice hull hydrolyzate containing 43.6 +/- 3.0 g fermentable sugars (glucose, 18.2 +/- 1.4 g; xylose, 21.4 +/- 1.1 g; arabinose, 2.4 +/- 0.3 g; galactose, 1.6 +/- 0.2 g) was 18.7 +/- 0.6 g (0.43 +/- 0.02 g/g sugars obtained; 0.13 +/- 0.01 g/g rice hulls) at pH 6.5 and 35 degrees C. Detoxification of the acid- and enzyme-treated rice hull hydrolyzate by overliming (pH 10.5, 90 degrees C, 30 min) reduced the time required for maximum ethanol production (17 +/- 0.2 g from 42.0 +/- 0.7 g sugars per L) by the E. coli strain from 64 to 39 h in the case of separate hydrolysis and fermentation and increased the maximum ethanol yield (per L) from 7.1 +/- 2.3 g in 140 h to 9.1 +/- 0.7 g in 112 h in the case of simultaneous saccharification and fermentation.  相似文献

Rice straw was pretreated using aqueous-ammonia solution at moderate temperatures to enable production of the maximum amount of fermentable sugars from enzymatic hydrolysis. The effects of various operating variables including pretreatment temperature, pretreatment time, the concentration of ammonia and the solid-to-liquid ratio on the degree of lignin removal and the enzymatic digestibility were optimized using response surface methodology. The optimal reaction conditions, which resulted in an enzymatic digestibility of 71.1%, were found to be 69 °C, 10 h and an ammonia concentration of 21% (w/w). The effects of different commercial cellulases and the additional effect of a non-cellulolytic enzyme, xylanase, were also evaluated. Additionally, simultaneous saccharification and fermentation was conducted with rice straw to assess the ethanol production yield and productivity.  相似文献

The enzymatic saccharification of three different feedstocks, rice straw, bagasse and silvergrass, which had been pretreated with different dilute acid concentrations, was studied to verify how enzymatic saccharification was affected by the lignin composition of the raw materials. There was a quantitatively inverse correlation between lignin content and enzymatic digestibility after pretreatment with 1%, 2% and 4% sulfuric acid. The lignin accounted for about 18.8–21.8% of pretreated rice straw, which was less than the 23.1–26.5% of pretreated bagasse and the 21.5–24.1% of pretreated silvergrass. The maximum glucose yield achieved, under an enzyme loading 6.5 FPU g?1 DM for 72 h, was close to 0.8 g glucose/g glucan from the enzymatic hydrolysis of the pretreated rice straw; this was twice that from bagasse and silvergrass. A decrease in initial rate of glucose production was observed in all cases when the raw materials underwent enzymatic saccharification with 4% sulfuric acid pretreatment. It is suggested that the higher acid concentration led to an inhibition of β-glucosidase activity. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy further indicated the chemical properties of the rice straw and silvergrass become more hydrophilic after pretreatment using 2% of sulfuric acid, but the pretreated bagasse tended to become more hydrophobic. The hydrophilic nature of the pretreated solid residues may increase the inhibitive effects of lignin on the cellulase and this could become very important for raw materials such as silvergrass that contain more lignin.  相似文献

Wheat straw used in this study contained 44.24 +/- 0.28% cellulose and 25.23 +/- 0.11% hemicellulose. Alkaline H(2)O(2) pretreatment and enzymatic saccharification were evaluated for conversion of wheat straw cellulose and hemicellulose to fermentable sugars. The maximum yield of monomeric sugars from wheat straw (8.6%, w/v) by alkaline peroxide pretreatment (2.15% H(2)O(2), v/v; pH 11.5; 35 degrees C; 24 h) and enzymatic saccharification (45 degrees C, pH 5.0, 120 h) by three commercial enzyme preparations (cellulase, beta-glucosidase, and xylanase) using 0.16 mL of each enzyme preparation per g of straw was 672 +/- 4 mg/g (96.7% yield). During the pretreatment, no measurable quantities of furfural and hydroxymethyl furfural were produced. The concentration of ethanol (per L) from alkaline peroxide pretreated enzyme saccharified wheat straw (66.0 g) hydrolyzate by recombinant Escherichia coli strain FBR5 at pH 6.5 and 37 degrees C in 48 h was 18.9 +/- 0.9 g with a yield of 0.46 g per g of available sugars (0.29 g/g straw). The ethanol concentration (per L) was 15.1 +/- 0.1 g with a yield of 0.23 g/g of straw in the case of simultaneous saccharification and fermentation by the E. coli strain at pH 6.0 and 37 degrees C in 48 h.  相似文献

Ethanol produced from lignocellulosic biomass is a renewable alternative to diminishing petroleum based liquid fuels. The release of many new sugarcane varieties by the United States Department of Agriculture to be used as energy crops is a promising feedstock alternative. Energy cane produces large amounts of biomass that can be easily transported, and production does not compete with food supply and prices because energy cane can be grown on marginal land instead of land for food crops. The purpose of this study was to evaluate energy cane for lignocellulosic ethanol production. Energy cane variety L 79-1002 was pretreated with weak sulfuric acid to remove lignin. In this study, 1.4 M sulfuric acid pretreated type II energy cane had a higher ethanol yield after fermentation by Klebsiella oxytoca without enzymatic saccharification than 0.8 M and 1.6 M sulfuric acid pretreated type II energy cane. Pretreated biomass was inoculated with K. oxytoca for cellulose fermentation and Pichia stipitis for hemicellulose fermentation under simultaneous saccahrification and fermentation (SSF) and separate hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) conditions. For enzymatic saccharification of cellulose, the cellulase and ??-glucanase cocktail significantly increased ethanol production compared to the ethanol production of fermented acid pretreated energy cane without enzymatic saccharification. The results revealed that energy cane variety L 79-1002 produced maximum cellulosic ethanol under SHF (6995 mg/L) and produced 3624 mg/L ethanol from fermentation of hemicellulosic sugars.  相似文献

Phanerochaete chrysosporium is a wood‐rot fungus that is capable of degrading lignin via its lignolytic system. In this study, an environmentally friendly fungal pretreatment process that produces less inhibitory substances than conventional methods was developed using P. chrysosporium and then evaluated by various analytical methods. To maximize the production of manganese peroxidase, which is the primary lignin‐degrading enzyme, culture medium was optimized using response surface methodologies including the Plackett–Burman design and the Box–Behnken design. Fermentation of 100 g of rice straw feedstock containing 35.7 g of glucan (mainly in the form of cellulose) by cultivation with P. chrysosporium for 15 days in the media optimized by response surface methodology was resulted in a yield of 29.0 g of glucan that had an enzymatic digestibility of 64.9% of the theoretical maximum glucose yield. In addition, scanning electronic microscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy, and X‐ray diffractometry revealed significant microstructural changes, fungal growth, and a reduction of the crystallinity index in the pretreated rice straw, respectively. When the fungal‐pretreated rice straw was used as a substrate for ethanol production in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) for 24 h, the ethanol concentration, production yield and the productivity were 9.49 g/L, 58.2% of the theoretical maximum, and 0.40 g/L/h, respectively. Based on these experimental data, if 100 g of rice straw are subjected to fungal pretreatment and SSF, 9.9 g of ethanol can be produced after 96 h, which is 62.7% of the theoretical maximum ethanol yield.

Phalaris aquatica L., a rich in holocellulose (69.80 %) and deficient in lignin (6.70 %) herbaceous, perennial grass species, was utilized in a two-step (biomass pretreatment-enzymatic hydrolysis) saccharification process for sugars recovery. The Taguchi methodology was employed to determine the dilute acid pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis conditions that optimized hemicellulose conversion (75.04 %), minimized the production of inhibitory compounds (1.41 g/L), and maximized the cellulose to glucose yield (69.69 %) of mixed particulate biomass (particles <1000 μm) under batch conditions. The effect of biomass particle size on saccharification process efficiency was also investigated. It was found that small-size biomass particles (53–106 μm) resulted in maximum hemicellulose conversion (81.12 %) and cellulose to glucose yield (93.24 %). The determined optimal conditions were then applied to a combined batch pretreatment process followed by a fed-batch enzymatic hydrolysis process that maximized glucose concentration (62.24 g/L) and yield (92.48 %). The overall efficiency of the saccharification process was 88.13 %.  相似文献

Efficient bioconversion of rice straw to ethanol with TiO2/UV pretreatment   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Rice straw is a lignocellulosic biomass that constitutes a renewable organic substance and alternative source of energy; however, its structure confounds the liberation of monosaccharides. Pretreating rice straw using a TiO(2)/UV system facilitated its hydrolysis with Accellerase 1000(?), suggesting that hydroxyl radicals (OH·) from the TiO(2)/UV system could degrade lignin and carbohydrates. TiO(2)/UV pretreatment was an essential step for conversion of hemicellulose to xylose; optimal conditions for this conversion were a TiO(2) concentration of 0.1% (w/v) and an irradiation time of 2 h with a UV-C lamp at 254 nm. After enzymatic hydrolysis, the sugar yields from rice straw pretreated with these parameters were 59.8 ± 0.7% of the theoretical for glucose (339 ± 13 mg/g rice straw) and 50.3 ± 2.8% for xylose (64 ± 3 mg/g rice straw). The fermentation of enzymatic hydrolysates containing 10.5 g glucose/L and 3.2 g xylose/L with Pichia stipitis produced 3.9 g ethanol/L with a corresponding yield of 0.39 g/g rice straw. The maximum possible ethanol conversion rate is 76.47%. TiO(2)/UV pretreatment can be performed at room temperature and atmospheric pressure and demonstrates potential in large-scale production of fermentable sugars.  相似文献

Sugarcane bagasses from three experimental sugarcane hybrids and a mill‐reference sample were used to compare the efficiency and mode of action of acid and alkaline sulfite pretreatment processes. Varied chemical loads and reaction temperatures were used to prepare samples with distinguished characteristics regarding xylan and lignin removals, as well as sulfonation levels of residual lignins. The pretreatment with low sulfite loads (5%) under acidic conditions (pH 2) provided maximum glucose yield of 70% during enzymatic hydrolysis with cellulases (10 FPU/g) and β‐glucosidases (20 UI/g bagasse). In this case, glucan enzymatic conversion from pretreated materials was mostly associated with extensive xylan removal (70–100%) and partial delignification occurred during the pretreatment. The use of low sulfite loads under acidic conditions required pretreatment temperatures of 160°C. In contrast, at a lower pretreatment temperature (120°C), alkaline sulfite process achieved similar glucan digestibility, but required a higher sulfite load (7.5%). Residual xylans from acid pretreated materials were almost completely hydrolysed by commercial enzymes, contrasting with relatively lower xylan to xylose conversions observed in alkaline pretreated samples. Efficient xylan removal during acid sulfite pretreatment and during enzymatic digestion can be useful to enhance glucan accessibility and digestibility by cellulases. Alkaline sulfite process also provided substrates with high glucan digestibility, mainly associated with delignification and sulfonation of residual lignins. The results demonstrate that temperature, pH, and sulfite can be combined for reducing lignocellulose recalcitrance and achieve similar glucan conversion rates in the alkaline and acid sulfite pretreated bagasses. © 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

Thermo-mechanical extrusion pretreatment for lignocellulosic biomass was investigated using soybean hulls as the substrate. The enzyme cocktail used to hydrolyze pretreated soybean hulls to fermentable sugars was optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). Structural changes in substrate and sugar yields from thermo-mechanical processing were compared with two traditional pretreatment methods that utilized dilute acid (1% sulfuric acid) and alkali (1% sodium hydroxide). Extrusion processing parameters (barrel temperature, in-barrel moisture, screw speed) and processing aids (starch, ethylene glycol) were studied with respect to reducing sugar and glucose yields. The conditions resulting in the highest cellulose to glucose conversion (95%) were screw speed 350 rpm, maximum barrel temperature 80 °C and in-barrel moisture content 40% wb. Compared with untreated soybean hulls, glucose yield from enzymatic hydrolysis of soybean hulls increased by 69.6%, 128.7% and 132.2%, respectively, when pretreated with dilute acid, alkali and extrusion.  相似文献

Summary Three different pretreatment methods with n-butylamine (n-BA) were used to obtain fermentable sugars in a high yield from rice straw. The optimal conditions of each method were as follows: treating at boiling point for 1 h under refluxing in 10 w/w% n-BA with the weight ratio of n-BA to original rice straw more than 1.0, autoclaving at 120°C for 1 h in 1 w/w% n-BA with the weight ratio more than 0.1, and wetting for 2 h with the circulating condensate of the vapour evaporated from 2.5 w/w% n-BA with the weight ratio more than 0.8. Soaking rice straw with n-BA before the above pretreatments was not needed. For the circulation pretreatment, the overall cumulative yield of total sugars (70% of cellulose and hemicellulose in original rice straw) was best for both pretreatment and enzymatic solubilization steps, because there was no decomposition of monosaccharides during the pretreatment. Furthermore, the optimal degree of delignification for enzymatic solubilization of the pretreated rice straw was approximately 60% of lignin in the original.  相似文献

Electron microscopy of lignocellulosic biomass following high-temperature pretreatment revealed the presence of spherical formations on the surface of the residual biomass. The hypothesis that these droplet formations are composed of lignins and possible lignin carbohydrate complexes is being explored. Experiments were conducted to better understand the formation of these "lignin" droplets and the possible implications they might have on the enzymatic saccharification of pretreated biomass. It was demonstrated that these droplets are produced from corn stover during pretreatment under neutral and acidic pH at and above 130 degrees C, and that they can deposit back onto the surface of residual biomass. The deposition of droplets produced under certain pretreatment conditions (acidic pH; T > 150 degrees C) and captured onto pure cellulose was shown to have a negative effect (5-20%) on the enzymatic saccharification of this substrate. It was noted that droplet density (per unit area) was greater and droplet size more variable under conditions where the greatest impact on enzymatic cellulose conversion was observed. These results indicate that this phenomenon has the potential to adversely affect the efficiency of enzymatic conversion in a lignocellulosic biorefinery.  相似文献

Apple pomace as a substrate for bioethanol production is interesting due to its abundance and sustainable availability in varied states like Himachal Pradesh (H.P.), Jammu and Kashmir, Uttarakhand and Arunachal Pradesh, India. In the current study, apple pomace which is the main fruit industrial waste of H.P. was evaluated as feedstock for bioethanol production by the process of enzymatic saccharification using multiple carbohydrases. Microwave pretreatment of the apple pomace resulted in the efficient removal of lignin and crystalline structure of cellulose fibre. The enzymatic saccharification of the pretreated biomass was done by optimizing parameters for maximal saccharification leads to production of 27.50?mg/g of reduce, ng sugar. An enhanced ethanol yield of 44.46?g/l and fermentation efficiency of 58% by immobilized co-culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae MTCC 3089 and Scheffersomyces stipitis NCIM 3498 under SHF as compared to fermentation performed with free yeast cells, i.e. 34.46?g/l of ethanol and 45% of fermentation efficiency.  相似文献

Cellulase and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were added to Avicel cellulose and solids containing 56% cellulose and 28% lignin from dilute sulfuric acid pretreatment of corn stover. Little BSA was adsorbed on Avicel cellulose, while pretreated corn stover solids adsorbed considerable amounts of this protein. On the other hand, cellulase was highly adsorbed on both substrates. Adding a 1% concentration of BSA to dilute acid pretreated corn stover prior to enzyme addition at 15 FPU/g cellulose enhanced filter paper activity in solution by about a factor of 2 and beta-glucosidase activity in solution by about a factor of 14. Overall, these results suggested that BSA treatment reduced adsorption of cellulase and particularly beta-glucosidase on lignin. Of particular note, BSA treatment of pretreated corn stover solids prior to enzymatic hydrolysis increased 72 h glucose yields from about 82% to about 92% at a cellulase loading of 15 FPU/g cellulose or achieved about the same yield at a loading of 7.5 FPU/g cellulose. Similar improvements were also observed for enzymatic hydrolysis of ammonia fiber explosion (AFEX) pretreated corn stover and Douglas fir treated by SO(2) steam explosion and for simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of BSA pretreated corn stover. In addition, BSA treatment prior to hydrolysis reduced the need for beta-glucosidase supplementation of SSF. The results are consistent with non-specific competitive, irreversible adsorption of BSA on lignin and identify promising strategies to reduce enzyme requirements for cellulose hydrolysis.  相似文献

In order to utilize and control the invasive weed, crofton weed (Eupatorium adenophorum Spreng), a potential pathway was proposed by using it as a feedstock for production of fermentable sugars. Three chemical pretreatment methods were used for improving enzymatic saccharification of the weed stem. Mild H2SO4 pretreatment could obtain a relatively high yield of sugars in the pretreatment (32.89%, based on initial holocellulose), however, it led to only a slight enhancement of enzymatic digestibility. NaOH pretreatment could obtain a higher enzymatic conversion ratio of cellulose compared with H2SO4 pretreatment. Peracetic acid (PAA) pretreatment seemed to be the most effective for improving enzymatic saccharification of the weed stem in the three chemical pretreatment methods under the same conditions. The conversion ratio of cellulose in the sample pretreated by PAA under the "optimal" condition was increased to 50% by cellulase loading of 80 FPU/g cellulose for 72 h incubation. A number of empirical quadratic models were successfully developed according to the experimental data to predict the yield of sugar and degree of delignification.  相似文献

The simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of pretreated sugar cane leaves to produce ethanol using a cellulolytic enzyme complex from Trichoderma reesei QM 9414 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae NRRL-Y-132 was optimized. Enzymic saccharification parameters were evaluated prior to SSF studies. A 92% conversion of 2·5% substrate (alkaline hydrogen peroxide pretreated) to sugars was achieved at 50°C and pH 4·5, using T. reesei cellulase (40 FPU/g substrate), in 48 h. The pretreated substrate was then subjected to an SSF process using the cellulase complex and S. cerevisiae cells. Optimization of the SSF system is described.  相似文献

It is recognized that some form of post‐treatment will usually be required if reasonable hydrolysis yields (>60%) of steam pretreated softwood are to be achieved when using low enzyme loadings (5 FPU/g cellulose). In the work reported here we modified/removed lignin from steam pretreated softwood while investigating the influence that the severity of pretreatment might have on the effectiveness of subsequent post‐treatments. Although treatment at a lower severity could provide better overall hemicellulose recovery, post‐treatment was not as effective on the cellulosic component. Pretreatment at medium severity resulted in the best compromise, providing reasonable recovery of the water soluble hemicellulose sugars and the use of post‐treatment conditions that significantly increased the enzymatic hydrolysis of the water insoluble cellulosic component. Post‐treatment with alkaline hydrogen peroxide or neutral sulfonation resulted in 62% cellulose hydrolysis at an enzyme loading of 5 FPU/g cellulose, which was four times greater than was obtained when the cellulosic fraction was not post‐treated. When the enzyme loading was increased to 15 FPU/g cellulose, the post‐treated cellulosic fraction was almost completely hydrolyzed to glucose. Despite the higher lignin content (44%) of the sulfonated substrate, similar hydrolysis yields to those achieved after alkaline peroxide post‐treatment (14% lignin content) indicated that, in addition to lignin removal, lignin modification also plays an important role in influencing the effectiveness of hydrolysis when low enzyme loadings are used.

Native wheat straw (WS) was pretreated with various concentrations of H2SO4 and NaOH followed by secondary treatments with ethylene diamine (EDA) and NH4OH prior to enzymatic saccharification. Conversion of the cellulosic component to sugar varied with the chemical modification steps. Treatment solely with alkali yield 51–75% conversion, depending on temperature. Acid treatment at elevated tempeatures showed a substantial decrease in the hemicellulose component, whereas EDA-treated WS (acid pretreated) showed a 69–75% decrease in the lignin component. Acid-pretreated EDA-treated straw yielded a 98% conversion rate, followed by 83% for alkali–NH4OH treated straws. In other experiments, WS was pretreated with varying concentration of H2SO4 or NaOh followed by NH4OH treatment prior to enzymatic hydrolysis. Pretreatment of straw with 2% NaOH for 4 h coupled to enzymatic hydrolysis yield a 76% conversion of the cellulosic component. Acid–base combination pretreatment yielded only 43% conversions. A reactor column was subsequently used to measure modification–saccharification–fermentation for wheat straw conversion on a larger scale. Thirty percent conversions of wheat straw cellulosics to sugar were observed with subsequent fermentation to alcohol. The crude cellulase preparation yielded considerable quantities of xylose in addition to the glucose. Saccharified materials were fermented directly with actively proliferating proliferating yeast cells without concentration of the sugars.  相似文献

Seventeen Cyathus stercoreus isolates were tested for their ability to treat rice straw for improved enzymatic saccharification. These isolates showed a negative correlation between cellulase and xylanase activity and enzymatic saccharification yields. Incubation of rice straw pretreated at 60 °C for 15 min with strain C. stercoreus TY-2 for 25 days resulted in an enzymatic saccharification yield of 57% as compared to a yield of 11% for the same straw in the absence of the fungus. These findings highlight the potential of this isolate for biological pretreatment of rice straw under conditions of low energy input.  相似文献

Wheat straw consists of 48.57 ± 0.30% cellulose and 27.70 ± 0.12% hemicellulose on dry solid (DS) basis and has the potential to serve as a low cost feedstock for production of ethanol. Dilute acid pretreatment at varied temperature and enzymatic saccharification were evaluated for conversion of wheat straw cellulose and hemicellulose to monomeric sugars. The maximum yield of monomeric sugars from wheat straw (7.83%, w/v, DS) by dilute H2SO4 (0.75%, v/v) pretreatment and enzymatic saccharification (45 °C, pH 5.0, 72 h) using cellulase, β-glucosidase, xylanase and esterase was 565 ± 10 mg/g. Under this condition, no measurable quantities of furfural and hydroxymethyl furfural were produced. The yield of ethanol (per litre) from acid pretreated enzyme saccharified wheat straw (78.3 g) hydrolyzate by recombinant Escherichia coli strain FBR5 was 19 ± 1 g with a yield of 0.24 g/g DS. Detoxification of the acid and enzyme treated wheat straw hydrolyzate by overliming reduced the fermentation time from 118 to 39 h in the case of separate hydrolysis and fermentation (35 °C, pH 6.5), and increased the ethanol yield from 13 ± 2 to 17 ± 0 g/l and decreased the fermentation time from 136 to 112 h in the case of simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (35 °C, pH 6.0).  相似文献
