| 41. | Moreover, it cannot be disregarded as hemicellulose will increase the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of cellulosic ethanol production.
|
| 42. | The acid-catalysed degradation of hemicellulose gives furfural, a specialty solvent in industry and a precursor to synthetic polymers.
|
| 43. | The black liquor is an aqueous solution of lignin residues, hemicellulose, and the inorganic chemicals used in the process.
|
| 44. | :I don't know, but my guess would be it's cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin.
|
| 45. | Cellulose is broken down by hydrogen peroxide ( H 2 O 2 ) that is produced during the breakdown of hemicellulose.
|
| 46. | Therefore, the creation of these lignin micro-droplets and the hydrolysis of hemicellulose neutralize the two components protecting cellulose.
|
| 47. | For instance, besides glucose, sugar monomers in hemicellulose can include xylose, mannose, galactose, rhamnose, and arabinose.
|
| 48. | Another challenge to biomass fermentation is the high percentage of pentoses in the hemicellulose, such as xylose, or wood sugar.
|
| 49. | Plants are made from lignin, hemicellulose and cellulose; second generation technology uses one, two or all of these components.
|
| 50. | These include light or bleached wood as a result of the degradation of essential cell wall compounds such as lignin and hemicellulose.
