Dilute oxalic acid pretreatment for biorefining giant reed (Arundo donax L.)
چکیده انگلیسی

Biomass pretreatment is essential to overcome recalcitrance of lignocellulose for ethanol production. In the present study we pretreated giant reed (Arundo donax L.), a perennial, rhizomatous lignocellulosic grass with dilute oxalic acid. The effects of temperature (170–190 °C), acid loading (2–10% w/w) and reaction time (15–40 min) were handled as a single parameter, combined severity. We explored the change in hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin composition following pretreatment and glucan conversion after enzymatic hydrolysis of the solid residue. Two different yeast strains, Scheffersomyces (Pichia) stipitis CBS 6054, which is a native xylose and cellobiose fermenter, and Saccharomyces carlsbergensis FPL-450, which does not ferment xylose or cellobiose, were used along with commercial cellulolytic enzymes in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF). S. carlsbergensis attained a maximum ethanol concentration of 15.9 g/l after 48 h at pH 5.0, while S. stipitis, at the same condition, took 96 h to reach a similar ethanol value; increasing the pH to 6.0 reduced the S. stipitis lag phase and attained 18.0 g/l of ethanol within 72 h.


► We pretreated giant reed with dilute oxalic acid pretreatment.
► Separate optima exist for hemicellulose release and enzymatic saccharification.
► We obtained 68% of the theoretical for glucan conversion.
► We tested SSF using commercial cellulolytic enzymes and 2 different yeast strains.
► Highest ethanol yield was obtained with S. stipitis, 57% of the theoretical.
