Removal of non-structural components from poplar whole-tree chips to enhance hydrolysis and fermentation performance

Abstract: BackgroundWhole-tree chips will be a likely feedstock for future biorefineries because of their low cost. Non-structural components (NSC), however, represent a significant part of whole-tree chips. The NSC can account for more than 10% of whole-tree poplar mass when the trees are grown in short rotation cycles. The influence of NSC, however, on the production of fuels and chemicals is not well known. In this study, we assessed the impact of NSC removal from poplar whole-tree chips on pretreatment and enzymatic… Show more

“…These ndings are consistent with the literature, where Hӧrhammer et al (17) reports 59% ash removal from poplar WTC using an acidic-neutral wash, and He et al (6) reporter 20% ash removal after neutral washing of corn stover. Interestingly, alkaline preprocessed CPC biomass showed an approximate 40% increase in total ash content when compared to untreated CPC.…”
