Lignocellulosic biomass: Acid and alkaline pretreatments and their effects on biomass recalcitrance – Conventional processing and recent advances
Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass is one of the most abundant organic resources worldwide and is a promising source of renewable energy and bioproducts. It basically consists of three fractions, cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin, which confer a recalcitrant structure. As such, pretreatment steps are required to make each fraction available for further use, with acidic, alkaline and combined acidic-alkaline treatments being the most common techniques. This review focuses on recent strategies for lignocellulosic biomass pretreatment, with a critical discussion and comparison of their efficiency based on the composition of the materials. Mild pretreatments usually allow the recovery of the three biomass fractions for further transformation and valorisation. An insight is provided of newly developed technologies from recently filed patents on lignocellulosic biomass pretreatment and the transformation of agro-industrial residues into high value-added products, such as biofuels and organic acids.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
