“…The acid-base method is the most used method for cellulose extraction; its advantages include a simple extraction process, high extraction efficiency, good thermal stability, good crystallinity, easy control of reaction conditions, and low cost. The beneficial thing about this method of pulp extraction is that it is able to achieve large-scale industrial production and has ample development space [11]. Therefore, in the present study, the objective was to evaluate the extraction by means of acid hydrolysis, alkaline hydrolysis, and bleaching of cellulose from residues of the wine industry, focusing on the valorization of the grape stem ("Vinhão"), and to characterize the effects of granulometric fractions and retain (500, 300, 250, 150, 150) µm in relation to color, FTIR, and light microscopy.…”
