The presence of lignin in lignocellulosic biomass leads to a protective barrier that prevents
plant cell destruction by fungi and bacteria for conversion to bio-methane gas. Therefore, the …

Production of biogas from lignocellulosic biomass by anaerobic digestion (AD) has attracted
much interest. Oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB), one of lignocellulosic biomass, is …

Converting lignocellulosic waste biomass into biogas is a multi-step process; the rate
limiting reaction is lignin removal. The objective of the current study was to evaluate alkali …

Lignocellulose is an abundant renewable bio-macromolecular complex, which can be used
to produce biomethane and other high-value products. The lignin, presents in lignocellulose …

To enhance the codigestion of degradation and improve biomethane production potential,
sugarcane bagasse and filter mud were pretreated by sodium hydroxide NaOH 1 N at 100° …

The use of lignocellulosic waste as a power source typically requires pretreatment of the
material, either for sugars solubilisation or lignin removal. We evaluated the acid, alkaline …

This study investigates the effects of NaOH pretreatment on the microstructural distribution
and biomethane released from Xyris capensis. Xyris capensis was pretreated with NaOH …

Exploring sustainable energy and chemical sources based on biomass has increased
global interest. This study was focused on produce second-generation bioethanol using a …

Pretreatment is an important step in lignocellulosic bioethanol production which aims to
reduce lignin content and break down lignocellulosic structure thereby increasing the …

Alkaline pretreatment of wheat plant (WP), including its grains and straw, was investigated
under different conditions in order to enhance biomethane production at mesophilic …
