Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Native aspen (Populus tremuloides) was pretreated using sulfuric acid and sodium bisulfite (SPORL) and dilute sulfuric acid alone (DA). Simultaneous enzymatic saccharification and fermentation (SSF) was conducted at 18% solids using commercial enzymes with cellulase loadings ranging from 6 to 15FPU/g glucan and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y5. Compared with DA pretreatment, the SPORL pretreatment reduced the energy required for wood chip size-reduction, and reduced mixing energy of the resultant substrate for solid liquefaction. Approximately 60% more ethanol was produced from the solid SPORL substrate (211L/ton wood at 59g/L with SSF efficiency of 76%) than from the solid DA substrate (133L/ton wood at 35g/L with SSF efficiency 47%) at a cellulase loading of 10FPU/g glucan after 120h. When the cellulase loading was increased to 15FPU/g glucan on the DA substrate, the ethanol yield still remained lower than the SPORL substrate at 10FPU/g glucan.
