Pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass: A review on recent advances

Mankar, Akshay R., Pandey, Ashish, Modak, Arindam, Pant, K.K.·2021·Bioresource Technology

Abstract

Depleting fossil reserves and growing energy needs have raised the demand for an alternative and clean energy source. The use of ubiquitously available lignocellulosic biomass for developing economic and eco-friendly large scale biorefinery applications has provided the much-needed impetus in this regard. The pretreatment process is a vital step for biomass transformation into added value products such as sugars, biofuels, etc. Different pretreatment approaches are employed to overcome the recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass and expedite its disintegration into individual components- cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. The conventional pretreatment methods lack sustainability and practicability for industrial scale up. The review encompasses the recent advances in selective physical and chemical pretreatment approaches such as milling, extrusion, microwave, ammonia fibre explosion, eutectic solvents etc. The study will allow a deeper understanding of these pretreatment processes and increase their scope as sustainable technologies for developing modern biorefineries.

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.
