Cellulosic biomass is a promising feedstock for ethanol production because it is plentiful and
enriched in carbohydrates. While the basic technology for converting biomass into ethanol …

Abstract BACKGROUND Miscanthus× giganteus (M.× giganteus) is a potential source for
bioethanol or other useful products. Pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass is an essential …

The production of ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass provides an alternative to fossil fuels.
In this study, liquid hot water (LHW)-pretreated Miscanthus x giganteus (MxG) was used to …

The effects of wet and dry processing of miscanthus on bioethanol production using
simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process were investigated, with wet …

The members of the genus Miscanthus are potential feedstocks for biofuels because of the
promising high yields of biomass per unit of planted area. This review addresses species …

Background The C4 perennial grass Miscanthus giganteus has proved to be a promising bio-
energy crop. However, the biomass recalcitrance is a major challenge in biofuel production …

Pretreatment is extremely required in lignocellulosic bioethanol production to improve
enzymatic digestibility of biomass by disrupting lignin structure, reducing cellulose …

The increasing shortage of fossil hydrocarbon fuel dictates the need to search for and
develop alternative energy sources, including plant biomass. This paper is devoted to the …

This study investigated the production of bioethanol from Miscanthus using a specially
designed twin-screw extruder (designated CHEMET) with sodium hydroxide. Pretreatment …

Miscanthus× giganteus is a perennial rhizomatous grass which is used as a biofuel crop.
Due to its high yields, low production costs, resistance to low temperatures, low soil …
