Abstract
⺠Dilute oxalic acid pretreatment was developed for better downstream compatibility. ⺠Comparable xylose yields (â¼84%) to other leading pretreatment technologies was obtained. ⺠Monomer, oligomer, and degradation products were determined and compared for all pretreatments. ⺠Dilute oxalic acid led to less formation of degradation products than other acids during pretreatment. ⺠Total sugar yields for pretreatment & enzymatic hydrolysis were â¼85% for all pretreatments tested.
