Abstract
Biomass pretreatment for depolymerizing lignocellulosics to fermentable sugars has been studied for nearly 200Â years. Researches have aimed at high sugar production with minimal degradation to inhibitory compounds. Chemical, physico-chemical and biochemical conversions are the most promising technologies. This article reviews the advances and current trends in the pretreatment of lignocellulosics for a prosperous biorefinery.
