Rapid Recovery of Fermentable Sugars for Biofuel Production from Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Microcrystalline Cellulose by Hot-Compressed Water Pretreatment

Enzymatic hydrolysis of microcrystalline cellulose is a multistep heterogeneous reaction limited by the initial action of enzyme to produce short glucose chains, due to the presence of strong intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bonding networks in cellulose chains. The results in this study s...
