Abstract
After 4 weeks at 55 °C with aeration, some cellulose and hemicellulose were solubilized as monomers and oligomers in the pretreatment liquor. When considering the dissolved fragments of glucan and xylan in the pretreatment liquor, the overall yields of glucose and xylose were 93.2% and 79.5% at 15 FPU/g cellulose. The pretreatment liquor has no inhibitory effect on ethanol fermentation.
