Effective Gravimetric Characterization for Lignocellulosic Biomass: Comparison of NaOHH2O2 and Ca(OH)2-H2O2 Oxidation Pretreated Sugarcane Bagasse
In this study, alkaline peroxide oxidation pretreatment was evaluated for sugarcane bagasse, a lignocellulosic biomass. By comparing the effects of NaOH-H2O2 and Ca(OH)2 on pretreatments at specified reaction time periods (3, 6, 9, and 12 h) and reaction temperatures (60, 70, 80, and 90 h), optimum responses in term of cellulose content, hemicellulose solubilization, and lignin removal were...
