Submerged macrophyte restoration enhanced microbial carbon utilization in shallow lakes. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 934:173357. [PMID: 38772483 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.173357] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2024] [Revised: 05/13/2024] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/23/2024]
Abstract
Submerged macrophytes are integral to the functioning of shallow lakes through their interaction with microorganisms. However, we have a limited understanding of how microbial communities in shallow lakes respond when macrophytes are restored after being historically extirpated. Here, we explored the interactions between prokaryotic communities and carbon utilization in two lakes where submerged macrophytes were restored. We found restoration reduced total carbon in sediment by 8.9 %-27.9 % and total organic carbon by 16.7 %-36.9 % relative to control treatment, but had no effects on carbon content in the overlying water. Sediment microbial communities were more sensitive to restoration than planktonic microbes and showed enhanced utilization of simple carbon substrates, such as Tween 40, after restoration. The increase in carbon utilization was attributed to declines in the relative abundance of some genera, such as Saccharicenans and Desertimonas, which were found weakly associated with the utilization of different carbon substrates. These genera likely competed with microbes with high carbon utilization in restored areas, such as Lubomirskia. Our findings highlight how restoring submerged macrophytes can enhance microbial carbon utilization and provide guidance to improve the carbon sequestration capacity of restored shallow lakes.

Abstract
Paper sludge biomass represents an underutilized feedstock rich in pulped and processed cellulose which is currently a waste stream with significant disposal cost to industry for landfilling services. Effective fractionation of the cellulose from paper sludge presents an opportunity to yield cellulose as feedstock for value-added processes. A novel approach to cellulose fractionation is the sidehill screening system, herein studied at the pilot-plant scale. Composition analysis determined ash removal and carbohydrate retention of both sidehill and high-performance benchtop screening systems. Sidehill screening resulted in greater carbohydrates retention relative to benchtop screening (90% vs 66%) and similar ash removal (95% vs 98%). Techno-economic analysis for production of sugar syrup yielded a minimum selling price of $331/metric ton of sugar syrup including disposal savings, significantly less than a commercial sugar syrup without fractionation. Sensitivity analysis showed that screening conditions played a significant role in economic feasibility for cellulosic yield and downstream processes.

Abstract
Pretreatment of sugarcane bagasse (SCB) by aqueous acetic acid (AA), with the addition of sulfuric acid (SA) as a catalyst under mild condition (<110 °C), was investigated. A response surface methodology (central composite design) was employed to study the effects of temperature, AA concentration, time, and SA concentration, as well as their interactive effects, on several response variables. Kinetic modeling was further investigated for AA pretreatment using both Saeman's model and the Potential Degree of Reaction (PDR) model. It was found that Saeman's model showed a great deviation from the experimental results, while the PDR model fitted the experimental data very well, with determination coefficients of 0.95-0.99. However, poor enzymatic digestibility of the AA-pretreated substrates was observed, mainly due to the relatively low degree of delignification and acetylation of cellulose. Post-treatment of the pretreated cellulosic solid well improved the cellulose digestibly by further selectively removing 50-60% of the residual linin and acetyl group. The enzymatic polysaccharide conversion increased from <30% for AA-pretreatment to about 70% for PAA post-treatment.

[PMID: 37177139 PMCID: PMC10180774 DOI: 10.3390/polym15091991] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2023] [Revised: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 04/18/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
A water-soluble cationic kraft lignin (named JLQKL50), synthesized by combining quaternization and crosslinking reactions, was used as an additive to enhance the enzymatic hydrolysis of dilute-alkali-pretreated corn stalk. The chemical constitution of JLQKL50 was investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. The enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency of corn stalk at solid content of 10% (w/v) was significantly improved from 70.67% to 78.88% after 24 h when JLQKL50 was added at a concentration of 2 g/L. Meanwhile, the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency after 72 h reached 91.11% with 10 FPU/g of cellulase and 97.92% with 15 FPU/g of cellulase. In addition, JLQKL50 was found capable of extending the pH and temperature ranges of enzymatic hydrolysis to maintain high efficiency (higher than 70%). The decrease in cellulase activity under vigorous stirring with the addition of JLQKL50 was 17.4%, which was much lower than that (29.7%) without JLQKL50. The addition of JLQKL50 reduced the nonproductive adsorption of cellulase on the lignin substrate and improved the longevity, dispersity, and stability of the cellulase by enabling electrostatic repulsion. Therefore, the enzymatic hydrolysis of the corn stalk was enhanced. This study paves the way for the design of sustainable lignin-based additives to boost the enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass.

Additives Enhancing Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Wheat Straw to Obtain Fermentable Sugar. Appl Biochem Biotechnol 2023; 195:1059-1071.

Abstract
In order to explore the effect of additives on enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose biomass, the effect of two different additives, Triton X-100 (TX-100) and Bovine serum albumin (BSA), enzyme dosages, and additive concentrations on enzymatic hydrolysis to obtain fermentable sugar using cellulose extracted from wheat straw (WS) as the substrate was investigated in this study. An enzymatic hydrolysis kinetic model was used to successfully describe the enzymatic hydrolysis in a heterogeneous system. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used to determine the effect of extraction and enzymatic hydrolysis on the composition and structure of the samples. The results showed that the total reducing sugar concentration of the raw was 1.535 g/L at 120 h, but that of the extracted cellulose (EC) increased to 5.087 g/L at 120 h, indicating that EC from WS is more conducive to enzymatic hydrolysis compared with the raw. The total reducing sugar concentration with the addition of the TX-100 was 6.737 g/L at 120 h, which was greater than that with the addition of the BSA (5.728 g/L at 120 h), indicating that the addition of two additives improved the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency, especially TX-100. The kinetic studies showed that the initial enzymatic hydrolysis reaction rate (Km) of the EC was more than four times greater than that of the raw. The Km of the EC added with TX-100 and BSA were increased by 29.50% and 22.89% compared with that of the EC without the addition of additive. The addition of additives is an effective method for enhancing enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency and fermentable sugar production from lignocellulosic biomass.

Abstract
The valorization of organosolv pretreatment (OP) is a required approach to the industrialization of the current enzyme-mediated lignocellulosic biorefinery. Recent literature has demonstrated that the solvolysis happening in the OP can modify the soluble components into value-added active compounds, namely organosolv modified lignin (OML) and organosolv modified sugars (OMSs), in addition to protecting them against excessive degradation. Among them, the OML is coincidental with the "lignin-first" strategy that should render a highly reactive lignin enriched with β-O-4 linkages and less condensed structure by organosolv grafting, which is desirable for the transformation into phenolic compounds. The OMSs are valuable glycosidic compounds mainly synthesized by trans-glycosylation, which can find potential applications in cosmetics, foods, and healthcare. Therefore, a state-of-the-art OP holds a big promise of lowering the process cost by the valorization of these active compounds. Recent advances in organosolv modified components are reviewed, and perspectives are made for addressing future challenges.

Abstract
In this work, five different NaOH-catalyzed ethylene glycol (EG) pretreatments together with water-soluble sulfonated lignin (SL) were used for enhancing sugarcane bagasse (SCB) enzymatic digestion. The results showed that the coupling of NaOH and EG into a one-pot pretreatment (10%NaOH/EG) was more beneficial to improve SCB enzymatic hydrolysis than that of single 10%NaOH or EG pretreatment, or the two-step pretreatment of NaOH and EG in different sequence (10%NaOH+EG and EG + 10%NaOH, respectively). The highest glucose yield of this work was 91.2 %, mainly released from the SCB that pretreated with 10%NaOH/EG at 130 °C for 60 min and 72 h enzymatic hydrolysis. The adding of SL into the enzymatic hydrolysis step could significantly lower the cellulase dosage and hydrolysis time from 20 FPU/g and 72 h to 10 FPU/g and 24 h, respectively, meanwhile keeping a high glucose yield of 90.4 %. The characterization of various pretreated or un-pretreated SCB confirmed that the improvement of hydrolysis efficiency of SCB after 10%NaOH/EG pretreatment was closely related to the removal of various components barriers in SCB and the fragmentation of pretreated solid. It can be concluded that the developed NaOH-catalyzed ethylene glycol pretreatment was an efficiency way to enhance the sugar release from SCB.

Abstract
An aspirational pretreatment method for efficient fractionation and tailored valorization of large industrial biomass can ensure the realizability of sustainable biorefinery strategies. In this study, an ultrafast alkaline deep eutectic solvents (DES) pretreatment strategy was developed to efficiently extract the lignin nanoparticles and retain cellulose residues that could be readily enzymatic saccharified to obtain fermentative glucose for the bioenergy production from industrial xylose residue. Results showed that the DES pretreatment had excellent delignification performance and the regenerated DES lignin nanoparticles exhibited well-preserved structures and excellent antioxidant activity, as well as low molecular weights and relatively uniform size distribution, which could facilitate downstream catalytic degradation for production of chemicals and preparation of lignin-based materials. Under the optimal condition (DES pretreatment: 80 °C, 10 min; saccharification: 10 FPU/g, 5 wt%, 100 mg/g Tween 80), the glucose yield of 90.12% could be achieved, which was dramatically increased compared to raw materials.

Abstract
This study optimized the co-valorization of corn cob wastes (CCW) and dairy wastewater for simultaneous saccharification and lactic acid (LA) production (sDWW-SSF). Subsequently, the kinetics of Lactobacillus plantarum growth and LA production was assessed using the optimized conditions under microaerophilic (sDWW-SSFmicroaerophilic) and anaerobic (sDWW-SSFanaerobic) conditions, and thereafter compared to De Man, Rogosa and Sharpe (MRS) medium modified with pretreated CCW (mMRS-SSFmicroaerophilic). Optimized sDWW-SSF conditions produced maximum LA concentration and conversion of 11.15 ± 0.42 g/L and 18.90 ± 0.75%, respectively. Kinetic studies revealed that although the mMRS-SSFmicroaerophilic system obtained a higher maximum specific growth rate (μmax) and maximum potential LA concentration (Pm) compared to the wastewater-based bioprocesses, the data obtained for the latter were comparable when taking the resources and costs into consideration. These findings represent the potential to eliminate the use of valuable resources in lignocellulosic bioprocesses and provide insights on innovation towards driving a sustainable economy in line with the food-energy-water nexus.

Abstract
The complex structure of lignocellulosic biomass forms the recalcitrance to prevent the embedded holo-cellulosic sugars from undergoing the biodegradation. Therefore, a pretreatment is often required for an efficient enzymatic lignocellulosic hydrolysis. Recently, glycerol organosolv (GO) pretreatment is revealed potent in selective deconstruction of various lignocellulosic biomass and effective improvement of enzymatic hydrolysis. Evidently, the GO pretreatment is capable to modify the structure of dissolved components by glycerolysis, i.e., by trans-glycosylation onto glyceryl glycosides and by hydroxylation grafting onto glyceryl lignin. Such modifications tend to protect these main components against excessive degradation, which can be mainly responsible for the obviously less fermentation inhibitors arising in the GO pretreatment. This pretreatment can provide opportunities for valorization of emerging lignocellulosic biorefinery with production of value-added biochemicals. Recent advances in GO pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass followed by enzymatic hydrolysis are reviewed, and perspectives are made for addressing remaining challenges.

Carbohydr Polym 2021; 270:118388. [PMID: 34364629 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2021.118388] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2021] [Revised: 06/24/2021] [Accepted: 06/27/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
γ-Valerolactone (GVL), a biomass-derived green chemical, offers an environmentally responsible solvent for conversion of lignocellulose to high value-added chemicals. Herein, we report a two-step process for directly producing cellulosic residual, furfural and lignin from Miscanthus × giganteus (M. × giganteus) bypassing the isolation of xylose, which exhibits promising advantage in energy reduction. The optimized pretreatment (100 mM FeCl3 at 160 °C for 60 min) induced significant xylan removal (98.4%), resulting in rugged fibre surface, thus leading to the peak cellulose conversion of 99.3%. Furfural yield in the second step reached to 76.6% after 100 mM FeCl3 catalyzed GVL/H2O treatment at 180 °C for 10 min without addition of any chemical. The extracted lignin showed representative structure (such as β-O-4', β-β' linkages) and medium molecular weight (4275.5 g/mol). 79.6% of furfural can be recovered by distillation. This study proposes a systematic and energy efficient approach for maximizing biomass utilization.

Abstract
The effect of NaOH catalytic ethanol pretreatment under various temperatures (130-180 °C) and time (15-90 min) on the chemical composition and enzymatic saccharification of sugarcane bagasse was investigated in this study. The results showed that NaOH catalytic ethanol pretreatment assisted delignification and the reservation of cellulose and hemicellulose. When sugarcane bagasse was pretreated at 180 °C for 30 min, a substantial glucose yield of 91.6% was obtained after hydrolysis for 72 h, representing 94.6% of glucose in pretreated residue. This yield was promoted with respect to the compositional change and surface alteration of pretreated substrate. With the supplement of Tween 80, the enzyme usage would be saved by 50% and the enzymolysis time could be shortened to 24 h while obtaining comparable glucose yield. This study provided an economical feasible and gradual process for the generation of glucose, which was followed by fermentation and conversion to platform chemicals.

Abstract
Enzymatic hydrolysis of three pre-treated lignocellulosic biomasses -LCB- (wheat straw-WS-, corn stover-CSV- and cardoon stems -CS-) is studied. These biomasses were pre-treated by two methods: diluted sulfuric acid and acid ethanol-water extraction at six severity levels (H values). Pretreated solid fractions were hydrolyzed with commercial enzyme cocktails at standard conditions. A first-order kinetic fractal model was fitted to the experimental results. This model accurately describes the hydrolysis of all biomasses at all pre-treatment conditions studied. The results show that the formal first-order kinetic constant k depends on the biomass nature. The hydrolysis rate increases as the pre-treatment severity does, while the fractal exponent value h decreases. With these pre-treatments, and in terms of k and h, WS is highly reactive and, at medium H with EW pretreatment, highly accessible; CSV has a low reactivity and high accessibility and CS has the lowest reactivity and an increasing accessibility as severity rises.

Abstract
In this study, NaOH-catalyzed organosolv pretreatment with different loading of NaOH (0-10%) was proposed to disrupt the recalcitrant structure by degrading lignin, reserve the majority of cellulose and hemicellulose, and improve the enzymatic efficiency of sugarcane bagasse. It was found that the higher loading of NaOH during organosolv pretreatment yielded more glucose, and the synergistic performance of NaOH and ethanol on enzymolysis was superior to that pretreated with only NaOH and only ethanol during two-step pretreatment. Furthermore, Tween 80 was added to determine its influence on enzymolysis after NaOH-catalyzed organosolv pretreatment, leading to the highest glucose yield of 95.1% at 24 h, which saved 2/3 hydrolysis time while generating the similar glucose yield comparing with that without Tween 80. However, the increased yields of glucose by adding Tween 80 were decreased as hydrolysis time was prolonged from 6 h to 24 h.

Abstract
Microbial lipids were produced by both rice straw hydrolysates and recycled pretreated glycerol. First, lipid fermentation of glucose via Cryptococcus curvatus was optimized by response surface methodology. Variables were selected by Plackett-Burman design, and optimized by central composite design, achieving 4.9 g/L total lipid and 0.16 g/g lipid yield, and increased further as glucose increased from 30 to 50 g/L. Secondly, after pretreatment, 72% lignin of rice straw was removed with glucose yield increased by 2.4 times to 74% at 20% substrate and 3 FPU/g. Subsequently, its hydrolysates produced high total lipid (8.8 g/L) and lipid yield (0.17 g/g). Finally, recycled glycerol reached the maximum total lipid of 7.2 g/L and high lipid yield of 0.16 g/g. Based on the calculation, 2.9 g total lipid would be produced from 1 g rice straw and the recycled glycerol, with a similar composition to soybean oil.

Abstract
The use of additives in the enzymatic saccharification of lignocellulosic biomass can have positive effects, decreasing the unproductive adsorption of cellulases on lignin and reducing the loss of enzyme activity. Soybean protein stands out as a potential lignin-blocking additive, but the economic impact of its use has not previously been investigated. Here, a systematic evaluation was performed of the process conditions, together with a techno-economic analysis, for the use of soybean protein in the saccharification of hydrothermally pretreated sugarcane bagasse in the context of an integrated 1G-2G ethanol biorefinery. Statistical experimental design methodology was firstly applied as a tool to select the process variable solids loading at 15% (w/w) and soybean protein concentration at 12% (w/w), followed by determination of enzyme dosage at 10 FPU/g and hydrolysis time of 24 h. The saccharification of sugarcane bagasse under these conditions enabled an increase of 26% in the amount of glucose released, compared to the control without additive. The retro-techno-economic analysis (RTEA) technique showed that to make the biorefinery economically feasible, some performance targets should be reached experimentally such as increasing biomass conversion to ideally 80% and reducing enzyme loading to 5.6 FPU/g in the presence of low-cost soybean protein.

Abstract
The sustainability of a biofuel is severely affected by the technological route of its production. Chemical pretreatment can be considered the traditional method of decomposition of the lignocellulose into its mono and oligomeric units, which can be further bioconverted to ethanol. The evaluation of the recent advances in chemical pretreatments of sugarcane bagasse, especially diluted acids, alkaline, organosolv and ionic liquids, identified the critical points for sustainability. In this context, chemicals recovery and reutilization or their substitution by green solvents, heat and electricity generation through bioenergy, reutilization of water from evaporators, vinasse concentration and the upgrading of lignin were discussed as strategic routes for developing sustainable chemical-based lignocellulose pretreatment. The advances in the technologies that allow greater fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass should be focused on the minimization of the use of natural resources, effluent generation and energy expenditure.

Abstract
Lignocellulose-based processes for production of value-added products still face bottlenecks to attain feasibility. The key might lie on the biorefining of all lignocellulose main polymers, that is, cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. Lignin, considered an impediment in the access of cellulose and normally considered for energy recovery purposes, can give a higher contribution towards profitability of lignocellulosic biorefineries. Organosolv pretreatment allows selective fractionation of lignocellulose into separate cellulose-, hemicellulose- and lignin-rich streams. Ethanol organosolv and wood substrates dominated the research studies, while a wide range of substrates need definition on the most suitable organosolv pretreatment systems. Techno-economic and environmental analyses of organosolv-based processes as well as proper valorization strategies of the hemicellulose-rich fraction are still scarce. In view of dominance of ethanol organosolv with high delignification yields and high-purity of the recovered cellulose-rich fractions, close R & D collaboration with 1st generation ethanol plants might boost commercialization.

Abstract
A combination of chemo-mechanical pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass was developed with objectives to evaluate and optimize the energy efficiency and waste generation occurred in the pretreatment process. Sugarcane bagasse (SCB) was chemically pretreated with alkaline and alkaline peroxide followed by mechanical size reduction and enzymatic hydrolysis. The high solid and low solid loading pretreatments were studied to compare the total energy consumption, energy efficiency as well as waste generation. SCBSHNa (1:5) namely semi-humid chemo-mechanical pretreatment was found as the most effective pretreatment by decreasing 65% of total energy consumption. Moreover, the SCBSHNa (1:5) achieved the highest energy efficiency resulting in 0.536 kg reducing sugars/kWh and generated 0.33 kg of waste/kg reducing sugars. The developed process represented the advantages on energy efficiency and less waste generation compared to the conventional chemical soaking pretreatment process.

Abstract
A novel pretreatment using organic acid synergism with deep eutectic solvents (DESs) was developed to the co-production of oligosaccharides, especially for the functional oligosaccharides, and enhancement of corn straws enzymatic saccharification. It was found that lactic acid (Lac) pretreatment combined with choline chloride/Lac system could not only selectively convert the hemicellulose to xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS), which account for 89.7% of total xylose in prehydrolysate (the functional XOS (DP < 5) took up about 35%), but also significantly promote the glucose release (33.2 g/100 g material) and well lignin separation (representing 40.9% in whole process), which better than the single organic pretreatment at higher modified severity index (SI). Structural features of various solids were characterized to better comprehend how hemicellulose and lignin removal influenced enzymatic hydrolysis. This work offered the mild and potential method to co-produce fermentable sugars with the effective separation and valorization of lignin.

Abstract
The potential of rice husks and straw as adsorbents after being processed by subcritical water hydrolysis (SWH) was investigated. The influences of temperature (453, 493 and 533 K) and liquid/solid ratio (7.5 and 15 g water/g biomass) on the rice straw and rice husks characteristics and on the adsorption capacity of 2-nitrophenol were evaluated at pH 4 and 7. Adsorption kinetics, equilibrium and thermodynamic parameters were also studied. The adsorption capacity was favored at pH 7. Pseudo-first-order model was suitable to predict the kinetic curves for 2-nitrophenol concentrations of 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg/L and the isotherm data obeyed the Freundlich model. Overall, the thermodynamic results revealed a spontaneous and exothermic process. The maximum adsorption capacity (92.97 ± 1.31 mg/g) was obtained for rice straw that has undergone an SWH at 453 K and 7.5 g water/g straw. The integration of processes to valorize co-products can make the production of cellulosic bioethanol more feasible.

Abstract
Rice straw was pretreated with ethylene glycol (EG) and AlCl3 for enzymatic hydrolysis. EG-AlCl3 pretreatment had an extremely good selectivity for component fractionation, resulting in 88% delignification and 90% hemicellulose removal, with 100% cellulose recovered or 76% (w/w) cellulose content in solid residue at 150 °C with 0.055 mol/L AlCl3. The pretreated residue (5%, w/v) presented a higher enzymatic hydrolysis rate (glucose yield increased 2 times to 94%) for 24 h at cellulase loading of 10 FPU/g. The hydrolysis behavior was correlated with the composition and structure of substrates characterized by SEM, FT-IR, BET, XRD and TGA. The enzyme adsorption ability of pretreated straw was 12-folds that for the original sample. EG-AlCl3 solution was further cycled for 3 times with 100% cellulose recovery but only 29% lignin removal due to the loss of AlCl3. EG-AlCl3 pretreatment is an efficient method with little loss of cellulose for lignocelluloses.

BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS 2019; 12:107. [PMID: 31073331 PMCID: PMC6498686 DOI: 10.1186/s13068-019-1454-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2019] [Accepted: 04/25/2019] [Indexed: 05/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the intact structure of lignocellulosic biomass, pretreatment was a prerequisite to improve the enzymatic hydrolysis by disrupting the recalcitrant lignocellulose and increasing the accessibility of cellulose to enzyme. In this study, an alkaline hydrogen peroxide (AHP) pretreatment of sugarcane bagasse with various loadings of H2O2 (1.25-6.25 wt%) at temperatures of 60-160 °C was proposed to degrade hemicellulose/lignin and improve the enzymatic digestibility. RESULTS It was found that increasing H2O2 loadings during pretreatment lead to the enhancement of substrate digestibility, whereas the alkali (only NaOH)-pretreated solid generated higher glucose yield than that pretreated under AHP pretreatment with lower loading of H2O2. This enhancement of enzymatic digestibility was due to the degradation of hemicellulose and lignin. Furthermore, Tween 80 was added to promote enzymatic digestibility, however, the increased yields were different with various substrates and hydrolysis time. The highest glucose yield of 77.6% was obtained after pretreatment at 160 °C for 60 min with 6.25% H2O2 and the addition of Tween 80, representing 89.1% of glucose in pretreated substrate. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that the AHP pretreatment could greatly enhance the enzymatic saccharification. The addition of Tween 80 played remarkable performances in promoting the glucose yield during enzymatic hydrolysis by stabilizing and protecting the enzyme activity. This study provided an economical feasible and gradual process for the generation of glucose, which will be subsequently converted to bioethanol and bio-chemicals.

Enhancement of sugar production from coconut husk based on the impact of the combination of surfactant-assisted subcritical water and enzymatic hydrolysis. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2019; 274:89-96. [PMID: 30500768 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2018.11.074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2018] [Revised: 11/17/2018] [Accepted: 11/21/2018] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
The role of three kinds of surfactant (by means of PEG, Tween 80, and SDS) on subcritical water (SCW) hydrolysis of coconut husk towards the reducing sugar production was studied comprehensively. The addition of Tween gave a significant escalation of sugar yield below the cloud point (around 130 °C). The simultaneous hydrophobic and hydrophilic interaction between lignin and SDS drove the highest delignification and solubilization of monomeric sugar during SCW process. On the contrary, adding PEG showed an adverse effect on the subcritical condition. The best scenario of surfactant addition producing higher sugar production was by the addition on SCW instead of enzymatic hydrolysis. The combination of SCW assisted by SDS and enzymatic hydrolysis generated the highest sugar yield and minimized the degradation compound and energy consumption, resulting in favorable fermentable sugar for subsequent biofuel process.

Abstract
This work aimed at producing fermentable sugars and bioproducts from rice husks by subcritical water hydrolysis at 25 MPa in a semi-continuous mode. The influences of temperature (180 °C; 220 °C; 260 °C) and liquid/solid ratio (7.5 g water/g husks; 15 g water/g husks) on reducing sugar yield (YRS), efficiency (E), kinetic profiles (0-15 min), composition of sugars, inhibitors and organic acids, and physicochemical characteristics of the remaining solid material were evaluated and discussed in the work. The highest YRS (18.0 ± 2.9 g/100 g husks) and E (39.5 ± 1.7 g sugars/100 g carbohydrates) were obtained at 220 °C and 7.5 gwater/g husks. In such condition, the hydrolyzed solutions presented cellobiose (18.0 g/L), xylose 17.7 g/L), arabinose (3.6 g/L), glucose (1.5 g/L), and levulinic acid (0.7 g/L). The fermentable sugars and bioproducts can be applied in several industrial fields, especially for the production of bioethanol and other higher value-added chemical compounds.
