Effect of several factors on peracetic acid pretreatment of sugarcane bagasse for enzymatic hydrolysis

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Lignocellulose should undergo pretreatment to enhance its enzymatic digestibility before being saccharified. Peracetic acid (PAA) is a strong oxidant that can remove lignin under mild conditions. The sulfuric acid in the PAA solution also can cause degradation of hemicelluloses. The objective of the present work is to investigate the effect of several factors on peracetic acid pretreatment of sugarcane bagasse.

“…In 2005 and 2006, worldwide production capacity of ethanol was about 45 and 49 billion litres, respectively, and the total projected demand in 2015 is over 115 billion litres [2]. Lignocellulosic materials are abundant, cheap, and renewable and may be used as a substrate for ethanol production through microbial intervention [3]. Cereal straws are the most abundant resource which can serve as a potential feedstock for the production of biofuel [4].…”

“…Pretreatment in a temperature range of 100 to 250 °C has been attempted with a large number of organic or aqueous-organic solvents, either catalyzed or un-catalyzed (Zhao et al 2007). The most widely used alcohols for organosolv pretreatment are lower molecular weight aliphatic alcohols, with normal primary alcohols as better agents than secondary or tertiary alcohols for delignification (Zhao et al 2009).…”

“…Os resultados estão de acordo a estudos feitos por Benjamin et al (2013), Vallejos et al (2012) e Zhao et al (2007), nos quais reportou-se que o bagaço de cana-de-açúcar apresenta uma composição variável nas frações de celulose (32,6-45,0%), hemicelulose (23,6-35,0%), lignina (14,4-30%), extrativos (3,1-12,4%) e cinzas (0,6-3,4%). Os resultados da composição de bagaço de cana-de-açúcar pré-tratado em meio alcalino empregando Ca(OH) 2 , são mostrados na Tabela 1.…”
